Untitled (priest)

Simon Perchik

A handy plastic canister and the priest
squirts something the way wood
can always be found near water

–it's a shallow pond, half raft
half catch-all though you toss a flower
as if by leaning close

you won't remember why its breeze
collapsed and carries off the sea –at eye level
nothing but desert :his robe

sand, both sleeves pulling back
two by two by rain for the first time
after an exhausted night

while one more boundary overflows
and all around you the strange drink
he's thrown on the ground.
