When at five-thirty
In the rubbed-eye haziness
Of ferreting lonesome night walks
The camera-eye refugee
Asleep in the half wakefulness
Of the hour
Peers out of his high turbanned sockets:
Hyde Park's through road links
London's diurnally estranged couple -
The Arch and Gate.

Thinking it sophisticated, he declared himself a sophist. 
Dwelling deep in Plato’s cave, he became learned in the shapes of shadows. 
Enamored by their dim dancing, he concluded there can be no truth.

Potato Mountain

I will arrive
an habitual escapee
from the rabbit warrens
of central planners

By ferreting north
in search of
breaks in the maze
rifts in the grid

I will follow
a stream beside
the climbing track
and yet higher

To a saddle below
the great ridge 
southward...

on change

in that quiet place, faint
amongst the soft chatter,
the drizzle of little things hanging,
or the operations of daily dispute;

indulged in uninterrupted reverie,

Penetrating the window the moonlight casts onto my desk wheyey cream of gleam

Bypassing the door ajar extends afar my reminiscence in wee wisps of waft,

Ferreting out your memo and dusting dog-eared pages before sallow lamp...

Ferreting around, in dumpsters of dreams
In the back alleys of my imagination
Through swill, liaisons, and cheap rendezvous
And words misspoke in conversations
Rummaging for one morsel, an old tattered remnant
In a disregarded or discarded memory
For that one...

What I dislike most about certain women
is their insatiable need to know,
that determined prying,
that ferreting to be privy to what 
does not concern them. And then 
to spread it like a favorite recipe.

Crashing like thunder, cannon fire resounds,
Pounding on the shaken walls of the heart, lamenting:
War crawls into a bottle of red wine,
Poisoning the yearning heart;
The heart thumps blue.
 
Crashing like thunder, cannon fire resounds,
Smoke coils up...

This comes from my heart
  Resonating from my mind:
The most enchanting part
   Moving me is her behind!

Perplexed and dismayed
In the seeming misery.
This bewildered soul so abashed
Within the bodied figure so jittery.

Daunted her deep-felt presence
He wonders, if lost.
Heart sobs within, in cold sweat sequence
To what does this cost.

Uncertainty seemed a bedrest
One not...

The ferreting eyes
Tiny bulbs of duality
Moon and sun in the shrubbed darkness
Dogs frenzied, the cries
Of sudden solidarity
And the lane broken out into madness

The small village shudders
With glee, the found frailty
Of pingwing patches permitting invasion
Through porous...
