Hole in the Ice

Drift ice in your eyes
hoarfrost in your heart

your hands
untamed sled dogs

above us
a moon poises
amid stars

target
surrounded by holes
made by darts that strayed

Prayer

Recall you still
before going to bed

sometimes
I say a prayer
that only includes you
and dreams about a tiny boat

Recall you also
when wetting the knife

know that the shortest way
to a man's heart
goes straight through
his chest
