elysabeth faslund Poems

I'll go to the dollar store,
Buy a picture frame
For all the world to see
The loving side of me.
...

From what mountaintop did you
Gain wisdom?
Did you cherish the ledges you
Gained the summits with?
...

Walk with no shoes...walk quietly.
Walk like a new mother,
Watching her babe.
Walk, not speaking, as close to
...

Was the same dull nite
All over agin.
Comforter cozy.
Ice cream gone.
...

Eyes and feet on remote control,
Coffee pot(aka 'missile silo') activated.
Activated? I spelled it right?
Roosters all crowing
...

Druid mists, grey man fog...
Gnarled hands on limbs
Sanctifying the legends
...

Know that we will meet, before I leave...
In the way of wolves...
Chilling voices through canyons'
Twilight...
...

Thinking back on ages when I was angry,
Spinning anger in webs...
Catching my reflection in bits of
Shattered dew,
...

Tree-tiered ridges tower hay fields
Trespassed in rocks, stumps,
Tarnishing harvests
With difficulty.
