A conflagration of the birds
    I will not say they are the stars flying
Settles on the branches of a tree
    (She supports them with weary limbs
    Like a mother
    Burdened by rollicking boys
    Who frolic up and down her trunk),
And their swiftness
    Shaking wings, shifting
    Weight by hopping on this or that
    Foot
Is like a fire
Or the sky at night.
