the purpling River Manjees
and Tozzath watches from the bank,
the seat of his maroon pantaloons soaked with mud,
his nostrils flaring with the fragrance of ombadalias,
whose lacey petals flutter
like the wings of long-dead...

Family GardenersI've noticed
since early years on the family farm
with large matriarchally planted and harvested gardens,

Nutrition evolves from and for communal relatives
of which we are ourselves made
and nurtured into...

Stalked By August TreesEvery time I change directions
lately, and possibly beforely,
Trees stand by to mentor
and nurture,
to feed with branched hands
to bleed when uprooted
from aptic past centuries
of hibernating winter naps.
Trees of original pheromone attraction,
August spawned
like Taurus colonizing crabgrass
embedded in...

You Never Know Till You Get To KnowOne dark night a saucer crashed;
the military quickly cleaned up the trash.

JamesAround the corner

Like his father's 1968 Cadillac
My car door
echoed
As my heels stumbled across the driveway
Caught my balance on the...
