Assemblage 2: in the dark
|
he placed his skull cap
next to my blinking laptop
in the dark we kissed |
|
| |
|
| |
even if it knew
the flame's heat
moth |
| |
|
Calculating ...
a fish leaps to capture
a bite of heaven |
|
| |
|
| |
over deep water smooth animal strokes
I watch myself get smaller |
|
|
morning sun
a bee thrusts itself
into a daisy |
|
| |
|
| |
a slave ship –
Turner paints light
in the wind |
| |
|
in
you
released |
|
| |
|
| |
hard rain
the lines between things
soften |
|
|
on a rocking horse
my journey
thousand years from the south |
|
| |
|
| |
our names
carved on an oak
growing apart |
|
|
missing you . . .
the moon's fullness
lost in the lake |
|
| |
|
| |
hunger pangs —
the kitchen skylight
full of stars |
|
|
|
the cold cold wind blows me into the blue church |
|
| |
|
| |
Cool bright delicate.
Let me wear it around my neck,
this soft splash of rain. |
|
|
goodbye kiss —
soft moonlight touches
the last summer roses |
|
| |
|
| |
the cobblestone of
the city's old quarter
and red leaves |
|
|
a great mystery
neatly solved, the novel ends —
a lamp in autumn |
|
| |
|
| |
purple twilight
blooming iris –
what's the difference |
|
|
steady rain
water ascends
inside the live oak |
|
| |
|
| |
dusk deepens
volcanoes cradle
a crescent moon |
|
|
heavy fog —
unable to see
your lies |
|
| |
|
| |
ocean sunset
all I know
drifts away |
|
|
winter lake
the floodlit pelican
doubled |
|
| |
|
| |
a mountain
divides my country
in equal halves |
|
|
under a stainless steel
bridge
a country disappears |
|
| |
|
| |
a distant train
crossing the plains
summer rains |
|
