To the West, I looked.

Anger...energizes enthusiasm for truth.
Anger...destroys rose glasses.
Anger...antithisizes depression fears.
Anger...has no use for crutches.
...
Tin dripped sprinkles leaked puddles,
Watering Spider Lily, Narcissus blooms, roots.
Front porch steps lined white scents. Beloved.
Yard greened early Spring. Cypress, cattails,
...
Flame...for candles' light,
Negating dark.
Do we not trust light?
Flame?

God rest ye Merry Gentlemen
Let nothing ye dismay...for
Away in a manger...above,
The stars are brightly shining!
...
Scaramouche! Scaramouche!
Can you do the Fandango
Down a crawfish hole?
Down a crawfish hole?
...
Snow bright Eagle
of the underworld-
Talon Sun upwards.

planted, left to their own.
