but she knew that
her azure eyes beckoned me to come

approximately midway
into the administration
of forty fifth president,
whose crass, gutsy, lewd,
repulsive yawping finds
him squarely poised to
nab the nomination as
Republican front runner

Gateway Town
Gateway town, Mississippi and Missouri river flooding confluence,
with its celebration of manifest destiny, its looming, iconic archway.

T.S, Eliot,...

The cabin was bare dark and damp

The Light of Castine

One beautiful Spring morn late May
Through the winding Maine countryside
We headed over Castine way

Tomorrow’s desert’s wet mirage, cloud’s shape men can’t embrace.
Its fantasy, parched throats stay moist, its pillowed softness drawn
beyond arm’s reach are butterflies restrained with nets we weave.
