Decomposition - wrung poem

i.
Decomposition is moss on the trees
wrinkling the space before they were

decomposing and housing lifetimes
of once absent, wandering for shelter

animals—finding the soft coverings
green wrinkles in the tree skins

holding them, old tree moss, soft
filled compositions falling back

to give us space
again.

ii.
on trees
wrinkling were

decomposing lifetimes
of shelter

animals--coverings
green skins

holding soft
filled back

to space
again.

iii.
is moss on the

the space before they

and housing
once absent, wandering for
finding the soft
wrinkles in the tree

them, old tree moss,
compositions falling
give us

iv.
is the housing absent
finding wrinkles

old compositions
space again.
