letters find excellence
sentence blends the rest
coherent minds melt
telling jests

hard knees keep
a respect for the ice
the season of time
leafs unyielding piles
viscoelastic limits tried
visible lines find
feet in behind and in front
short cuts on crystals took us

schenley park

succor works progress
prolific once scatters
crumbs of the land
hands on branches
brandish upright flags
flat layers through which
with long ago practice
now make my descent

october once

the afternoon the rain
sitting in the silent chair
listening to wind
alternate
between amongst
the leafs and nets
tapping the glass
keeping a sort of time
as a reminder
colors green to gold to gone

looking for answers as to
where the muskellunge

in the deep
and if it wasn't

pike as well
and if not when

some a glacier broke
fractures pink exposed
fanned stepping stones

penelope

the spray encases the sides
holding the suns shimmer
longer in the low light
on november waves
putting along
