Grabbing Colors With Vincent
Running fast thru Autumn’s dream, Vincent-bright in village winter’s light
Topaz-treed streets, eaves-filled , singing with saffron and gold,
A Rocky Mountain cold cornflower sky over English hills
Vivid with Vincent-fuzzy ice-finger edges
Photo-album best parts of...

Unwary
Awoken by sudden flashes of painted bricks slipping into my skin
I hid inside the newly bare nail beds
chewing on carbon copies of myself
my teeth clicked
scrubbing the rythm and blues desk
iron blood
and pipping...

The Drove
The trail was long and very dusty
great clouds churned up by hooves
of the vast herd being wrangled on
300 more miles of eating their dust
Bandana's tightly wrapped round faces
cries of "get up there" ringing out
bawling calves...

Had they but known that

Another Storm
Another storm threatens to come in,
feeling my responsibility
for uncaring
and unresponsive history
Fearing you
more than loving us
Setting out your pails
and plastic tubs
to catch cold
and dreary drips
Impaled remembering
past wet enemies
becoming darker spots
as moist tears terrorize,
building mold untold
as yet...

Walton's Scrapyard
Walton’s Scrapyard
Mr Walton was our local scrap man
He wore a great big hat
His yard was squeezed between
Two terraced houses

The yard was full of junk
Rusting scrap
And old tat
Tangled up...

William Sawden
1893-1917
On the southern facade,
Of the Golden Rule Store,
On Greenleaf Avenue to the north,
There is a single window,
On the third floor up.
Behind the white half open curtain,
Facing south and southwest,
A sixteen year old boy,...

Maguerite's Charms
MARGUERITE’S CHARMS

Walked out with camera before rain should return,
And fell in love, mesmerized, helpless, captivated.
Stopped at garden with waist-high iron railings, riveted,
And its flowers...
