Poem For The Occasion Of Staehood For North Carolina, November 21,1789



Here on lookout point,
demarcation of three states,
this spare, slim elbow of land
gloved in a demonstration of green convergence
parades the grandeur of cavernous June


Burgeoning sweet flame
and ravaging viburnum
nations the aching heart,
Praises the grave and the grave's sky.
