highly damped oscillation

the beginning of spring

the begging rain falls

unheeded by sticks still

 

small ears of leafs

unearthly green

listen to the late frost

so, snow

figures strange figures
perplexes abstract edges
minute spars set flying
into eyes blinking
sun onto blinding
the froth drifting
steps forward sinking
a broom and a shovel
each advance
an avalanche

lopi

the stove talks this morning
of snow of units of weight of measures
of shovels of pancakes of armida
of maria callas of old rossini
of time of space
in clicks and ticks
a heavy black dolphin
another mouth to feed

an arrival

in this, this biting and dark evening

the sandbar is sunk with snow

the brittle apple sticks clack

the bristle dry goldenrod rattles

the steps of yesterdays racoon

cat casting a shadow telling what

starcraft

the lines are faster in the night

the temperature dips into a vault

the knot is tight enough to tell time

the fingers that unwind are blind

the river is ice the lights are still

on the moon

a step into the moon several inches deep

the dust settles and at the edges are

non compete clauses and other verbiage

little remembrances of proceedings past

long ago notes and forgeries that pass

the cold here is immense, is trying

the cold blows your nose for you

the snot puddles in stray creases

on the moon snot and sneezes freezes

on december

on the path

to the pile

the goldenrods reach

into in the way

dried and rigid

they rattle the wind

the seeds take off

agree with the breeze

autum

the leafs are off 

the wind has toys

the trees feel free

the sun finds shade

zeniths

lost in the pavement are stones

immobilized records of moments

transition metals and elements rarer

feet stepping hither and thither

frieze_v221

on hard ground again a fine

edge on every green blade

a mirror held up to the sun

this morning I walk at a run

carolinas

the title of the sun is written

across the vision

just minutes 

the waves go

some stole the show

the sand should sparkle

here the teeth are black

to reach down brown eyes

yes that is one that is some

apples

slowly the near round reduces

when in wet contract into ground

time and july worms consume

foot and step and frost and tooth too

on newton

as far as an apple falls

the tree at an extreme sense

in the future and past tenses

that release some understand

especially those standing

underneath the orchards reach

so a salamandar

there lives the salamandar

down at the bottom

where two ravines defile

a mountain and define

a gully where water

and junk collect

or if not that then

low lower from where

here is a gneiss and feldspar

home away from what

is nice and normal according

to regular people

and the tax collector

a beach

when the ocean broke open

a tern submerged

while the pelicans booked hours

 

the porpoise is the mammal

to observe the art

another one becomes

without purpose overt

a beach without end nor start

warming up

the house is and was cold

 

foot steps from the silver cloud

the earth touched and then undone

a stagnant froth grown rough

deep and silent enough to stress bones

the elbow into the side to steady

the ashes the ready bucket

a tree had died

these are those

into the stove

 

striking the match

the embers now glow

swallow v dragon

said the swallow to the fly

who has that eye

which is multiply 

can you turn and wheel like i?

can you bank and dip?

can you tie day to night?

said the fly to the bird

who has archaic words

which do mortify

can you swim and skim like i?

can you zip or just flap?

can you metamorphasize?

visions_v_dinner_d1

lets set the table straight

lets let the lights be right

say what you will

say that you still

pass some of that stuff

pass some of that loaf

a spring vision

the sun might find us inclined

to speak of the newest leafs

nothing strikes the mind

so much is a timid green finery

soon to close all gaps

and make the lines blind

moves

sticking steps across on the floor

the wood bows and the lights they

light up the shadows with a dance

from heel to toe sweat in tow

a droit a gauche azucar get low

types of words our hips know
