Willows high- waisted



Willows high- waisted
Draped and eddied
Pole the brown
Erupting river
Choked width
Cottonwood 
Outbound to the Gulf
Or beached before
All muddy
Stuck
In a state
That carries too
Its slippery name
Drawled around
A flowing seam
Fingering
A sweaty fan
Laid upon
Its reverent lap
Abiding
