The Ghost, The Mountain (poem)

Where is he? Now that the woods

are quiet, and the snow,

April-thawed, has carved a bit

more from the rock

Now that the grass has spiked

underfoot

Where is the young black man

in his freshly bought

jacket and urban shoes

the city kid who loves birds?

~Hardheaded Weather by Cornelius Eady
