Pequot River Land Trust
Once,
or twice,
maybe thrice,
surely not
not fractal
A clan of crazy ecofeminists
conspired within an 88 unit residential castle
in their historically converted
sometimes hysterically clueless condo
colonial-red predative brick
badly bald aging building

Asked to let go.
She stared at the misshapen face,
Unshaven sandpapery skin
Eyelids a tabula rasa
Fluttery sere skin
And we could see the humor blossoming in his...

I woke up to the chirping of birds
On the trees above and across the vale
And the riverine bushes in-between
I woke up to the crowing of cocks
And the mooing...

Like staunch sentinels they stand
Around a center speaker, a white-haired man

Crones
Five gray, silver, and white haired crones
Navigated slimy green stones
Like tight rope walkers
Having been summoned by the wind talkers
They crossed a shallow creek
Each feeble and weak
They entered consecrated woods
Wearing cloaks and hoods
Upon awareness of being...

Glowing Gals

limping with arthritic stagger, aching unrelentlessly.

The jungle drum you drummed.

Father I still remember
Those joyous days
When like brooding hens
You employed your hands
To shield the...
