Alexandria Peary
SMALL BLUE HOUSE
This mighty bird house
is an A-frame, a letter
A hanging off a branch
from the previous poem
a move some readers don’t care for.
It’s insulated, with trinkets
that rattle when shaken
a king cake jesus, a rhine
stone mummy, a man
who spends more time at a desk
than a table with a candelabra of buds
and the house hangs off a birch
which is cold, zen, zebra-striped,
and papery.
