Gregory Wm. Gunn Poems

A smooth, facile puma gait
through the subterfuge
of the forest at nightfall;
you impulsively slink
...

A Piranesi design, sinuous in expanding umbra,
night-mantled as grey cell bars are drawn
in ponytails, gangway ghosts to the lashing.
...

The river this ashen-skied autumn afternoon
slowly flows in an equipoise of rain and wind,
where the water bends & quickens a laughing loon
regales amid flat rocks & eddies, searching in
...

No one will lay eyes on your face
the same way that I do: ingenuous,
fully exposed and undercover.
Love inveigled us like briny water,
...

Forget today the world's dismay
Although malevolence may loom,
Let us remember that each day
Contains a certain charm in bloom.
...

It's rather inexplicable
to my better judgement
why all my accommodations,
all at once
...

Catapulted irrepressibly
into expressions of random
thoughts where aimable I,
definable shall sift novaed
...

It emanates unheralded,
whetting the appetite
between
pitch & pizzicato,
...

Through the darkling hallways
at an interval before nightfall,
he plods along in solitude
without a sound,
...
