(2008)
Clouds on horizon Now and then a shorebird’s cry On buffeting wind
Tide tickling sun’s wake Under a thin skin of ice Beach disappearing
the universe opens accepting my homecoming sky races by
Empty moorings and Quiet lighthouse watch the bay Crawl back to the sea
a great blue heron watches from a mogul of grass as I scavenge a poem from the marsh Tom Peepety calls
odd to think of the world without… a frozen corpse in the revolving e… molten lava below cold stars above journeying through the long, wide… unknowing
Seagulls hovering Uneven hills encircle Tide pool reflection
little lies, seeds of thyme shallow-rooted, often sewn cover the largest stone yet a tree springs from a single seed
My queen for a day My man’s is in drag again Halloween party
white-rimmed waves crawl reluctantly shore ward moody city skyline rebuffs shafts of sunshine cloud confusion
I am a rock on the shore of the magnificent ocean millions of years by the magnificent ocean and millions more
In the lamplight leaf shadows break on the ragged edges of my heart
WINTER SHADOW / Feb 11, 2011 small white stones fall rattling to the ground a shadow keeps pace beside me through the groaning night
All I wanted to do was ride my mo… And make out at Spooner’s Point. But when Mary Daley got pregnant Her father threatened me with the… So I married her and went to work
Still they knock at my door And complain About the state of the world Selling fear Like grape Kool Aid
