50th Reunion

"Softly Whispering I Love You"
	---English Congregation--1972


It was a kind of rife
tactically attempting
doggy on a waterbed

Or contemplating True
Inseam in the clang of bells
and platforms.

The 50th ponders
perspective that I have,
and knees that I don’t.

My wife wants to
scout out an old
flame of mine

and I want to 
avoid the palpable

mysteries of antiquity
and such like

boats disappearing 
from the waterfronts 
    this fall in Maine

The deciduous marina
softly whispering
I love you.
