The Dove Made a Mistake
The dove made a mistake.
She was mistaken.
Heading north, she went south.
She thought the wheat was water.
She was mistaken.
She thought the sea was the sky;
that night was morning.
She was mistaken.
That the stars were dew;
that heat was snow.
She was mistaken.
That your skirt was your blouse;
that your heart, its home.
She was mistaken.
(She fell asleep on the shore.
You, at the top of a branch.
