Thought That Nature (Kathryn A. Morton Prize in Poetry)

by Trey Moody

Cole Swensen (Introduction)

In the middle of the night, when the fruit
is scariest. I hold my hand out

and feel your nibbling. Don't worry,
my eyes are still closed. I've only

peeked that once. The cold
that is your breath—these windows

of fog. If I were outside,
I'd read your name backward again and again.
