[Poetry]

IN THE GARDEN
by Ben Mazer

"I'm furious with you!" she shouted, pushing him off the bench.
All pivots, emblems that ordered the circulating stars
amassed one throbbing ember, scintillating, sparked
by his learning, all he had yet of knowledge.
The true bridegroom bent in the mulberry stalks
at evening. Embers crowded on each stalk.
