critters

on this late
summer night

call out
stock tips

as i stroll
with a dog

spun in ice -
the cream we stole from the barn
cools our night

2007

3 to 1

crickets
cheering
through
the screens

cigar smoke encircles
this close night

Yankees
winning
three
to one

anger:

an occasion
to count
my blessings

don’t inventory

give
it all
away!

in poetry

one can say
more
with less.

i like that.

smiles

i scratch and rub
my woolly
companion

i scratch and rub
the universe

the moon! is your logo…not McDonalds

there is no place
quite like the other

each valley
each plain
each mountain
each plateau

each
with its own
land forms
life forms
weather
and light

encased in a shared
halo of air

we are binding this earth in asphalt.

binding
and branding
we block the night sky
with our signs.

from
above
we look
like fire

2006

i am in part

soil, coyote
and tree.

what you do to this world
you do to me.

electron surfing

each breathing moment
blood flows
from an innocent

soon lifeless
as a bag of shells

the one
who seeks worship
is the antihero

the flicker of campfire
now the flicker of screen
