chanting in shadows,
pale as the crinoline moon,
ignoring your face.

now drowning in night...

now flooding with water;
the small, broken ribcage
of some primitive slaughter...
So near, yet so far.
A Surfeit of...

Modern Sonnets IMODERN SONNETS I

The Plural Sky and the Temptation of Its Mirrored Eyes
I melt into the plural sky
its rippling tableaus of tomorrow
underneath open light waves
see-saws the labyrinth
like Delphi tendrils crossing channels
all the changing faces played
automatic, embedded in misty consort
with Hyde-Lees and Yeats
love-crushed oracles

The Canopy and EconomySun and traffic - day economy.
Six a.m. drive to plywood mill. Too tired
to be angry. Each day a step

A Paradox of Time Reborn
The sun, resplendent in its blazing might,
Burns fiercely o'er a barren, lifeless waste,
A desert dry and vast where earth is scorched
