I'm eating cherries. Contemplating high water, Notice the green square. F A S T painted in red Inside a black diamond On a whitewashed wall The cold cabinet Today's fish separated With lemon slices Chome and bamboo I Watch the wheelchair fisherman Casting and casting Mortadella moon. The cardinal is eating Salted radishes. Silence. A clear sky. The embryo relaxing Will soon be a child. The gravel pit lake Gulls perch on rusted cranes Fisherman asleep. Fields of winter reeds A ditch digger piling mud Gulls stand in old rain. The flower seller Is blowing cigarette smoke Over his roses. Cold-moon bright bedroom Half asleep tethered with warmth I hear a tap drip. |
A moth on B flat Tobacco between the keys Empty piano. Bath time, a dead fly Floats in the cooling water I reach for the soap. Tanit figurine Worn stone computer lantern The slack marina. Indigo smoke from A cone of coincidence My hat in the air. Lemongrass burning Smoke rising, ash drifting to Opposite corners. Burning sandalwood Watching smoke become shadow SAW TREE FALL MAN WEDS On the canal bank... Smiling at my reflection Washing
radishes
(I wrote this to
celebrate 6 months recovery from my heart op)
Seven fish
frying
Sizzlling in a
smoke-black pan
Crescents of
lemon.
The gardener is Kneeling in winter sunlight Among last years leaves |
