Drum on you belly
marching through an onion field
tears falling downward
...
A revolving stage!
The carousel goes nowhere,
spinning endlessly back on itself.
The infinity of an hour glass.
...
And the blossoms welcome me home like a ticker tape confetti
and the chorus line trills above me while the roadway drums ahead.
jubilee
feeling
...
In your eyes,
waves crashing on jagged rock tips
between their hulking fingers
like white lace
...
mental muscle,
mapless
among the choir in the dying landscape
mosaic
...
If I could dispel your damper day
What would be best?
Twirling on the lawn
...
hazelnut eyes
caffeine for my soul
you panther
prowling the ruby city
...
Out on the diving board above shimmering stars,
stars burning on brandy and excelsior.
I watch the shoppers skate the icy slopes of meaningless
slippery and melting down into their tracks.
...
As a writer worth half a page
I toss word shapes and holes
in the cosmic vastness of space
words that burn out over time
...
