loss wears a subversive dress

in and out
of orchards, cherry, plum and apple
I wander, a derailed being
hunting for my lost head.

could it be
the pumpkin fermenting
near the outhouse door

or perhaps the Indian
rubber ball chewed raw
by the neighbour's outlaw dog?

how can it possibly matter
now that your memory
assassinates my every  artful fibre?
