trembling branch
the eagle has landed
shedding snow
...
Palpitations in every human heart
Encourages a human surge to take part.
Activities spawned by love, concern, and patient desire
Contribute to an eternal inner-burning fire
...
Life is like a light bulb
in the socket of this globe
off and on, on and off
one big, awful glob
...

Look up and gaze at craters on the cheesy moon.
A cow, a spoon jumping over the cheesy moon.
Opening the refrigerator, what cheese now?
...
What steps do we climb
................with creaks and groans?
What ghosts have passed our way?
................When was I meeting mine?
...
(to Marja Kristiina and her admirers
.......of “A Home From The Heart”)
her hands are clever,
...
The sun scrambles over the hills
taking census of all its kingdom creatures,
holding them in its grasp
pillaging every forest tree
