Long Stabled Poems

PROLOGUE:

might meant, to be, like 'goes',
Dutch disagree, cite, annunciation,

Had horses theirs to ride.
That she could...

Let me tell you a story from the old wild-west;
Of a terrible lawman with a star on his vest.
His title was “Ranger”; not bound to a town
He studied the outlaws then hunted them down.

O'er fields covered with glistening snow!

Skeins of geese fly on high silhouetted 'gainst the moon;
The scene is all set for a sleigh ride, so very opportune!

I miss the barn, the hay loft,
a place to listen to the midday sun
creaking through old wood.,
the small clouds of horse flies
moving as one in their jet-pack bodies,
that rose and fell

with no love or wealth,
I'm nothing is what...

Intricate dull summer, autumn's scourge,
Dog day noons, sultry dusk undress the night,
Mirage, sweaty foreheads entertain an oasis,
Rise of Fall, leaves, plot ere barked disguises,
Autumn's quarrels, chartreuse hawks verdant green hue,
Spar shades, tones, pigments re, imagination,
Expelled...

As I sit at the monitors

There is nothing to do 
Except wait for the end of the shift
The monitors show the...

In his chaste, and kill his dreams
While he wanted help

Bevy of swans in a sea-fowl cloud,
starling mumuration,whispering aloud.
Wray of quail,where teal spring,
tiding of magpie,as larks nesting, cling.

Nightingale watch a hover of crows,
herd of wrens,hosting sparrows.
Flight of doves,lapwing deceit,
charm of finches,swallows sweet.

You might say nine but to no avail,

The Chevy speeds by
eyesight pings it,
a reflexive vision
momentarily catches itself
looking back.

The barn is vacant, not empty,
its eyes have been locked open,
it bathes in sparrow and bat time.

Now hollow lids capture, snatch at
a headlong flight of...

I am known
for all the subject and matter
that I will never know.

At first light a cool breeze
drops the small humming bugs
from flagging brush and tree.

The stabled horse and I have not met,
