DOG LOOKING AT SELF

What's with all the windows? Dog looking inside
one window. Woman posing in window. Other windows open

   Christ is
barefoot again. The seagulls cut through the chambers of

ice gray swooping over geese, the unfazed hands reach
inside the deer, warm with blood. Christ is wearing a pair

   of boots . . .
He emerged when an animal crossed an open expanse of

snow and nothing else happened Sensor lights came on
It's dark, white in the flood lights, without nuance, gray is the

   ice out
further, hair blowing back off fair shoulders Dog looking at

self in one window Dog barking at window Christ standing at
door in boots Dog and man on street in dark everyone sleeping
