Lanterne Compendium

the single lanterne is a half  
American cinquain
VIDUAGE
Tall
nettles-
the dutch hoe
rusting in the
shed.
Lanterne #5
a
sea mist
rolls inshore-
daydreams deluge
me
Lanterne#18
Blind
alleys 
so often
have the deepest
ruts.
Lanterne 3
By
a stream
so shallow-
stoops a willow
tree.
Lanterne 177
May
blossom-
confetti
dancing on the
breeze
ART SCHOOL
The 
secret
of seeing-
knowing how to
see

RISING STAR
A
life in
the fast lane-
five minutes of
fame.

An ekphrasis lanterne after
Modern Idol by Boccioni
STILL LIFE
A
painting
on a plate-
simple breakfast
piece
DRIFTING
our
feelings
subside as
we go with the
flow
