Raquette River Elegy 1
kayaks take for granted blooms
on river ellen
kyokusetsu
ribbed wood canoe holds firm
for lovers' tangled hair to be returned
with our roadside laces
loggers' boat ribs petrified
by the river's deep mud and exposed
to lightning
wide shallow water offers no privacy
there's a pale shade of
the newish home, a driveway
that got its theived sedan
fated for the pressure in red Potsdam sand
an ellen still loves a boy on silty hand
