I saw you
through refracted light-
a prism of chance

Lakes and beaches are wiped clean like a whiteboard,
each day by waves, tide, wind.
Then marks of ripples and tracks provide transient tell-tales
of what has gone on since, of what is yet to co...

Between the blades of dewy grass
Mingle the particles of fresh dust
Their colour bleached to grey.
A bird descends and pecks for food,
Finding nothing it ascends today
Climbs higher...

The Mistreatment of Pens
...The pen is mightier than the sword
The pen is the copyist of every word

Glaciers pressing through granite masses
So huge they might be clouds held tightly...

Ode to all the Missing Pens
...Where do all the pens go
that's what I wanna know
Did we give them to friends
who might keep them (depends)
Maybe burglars stole them

Or snagged by the goblins

Make covenant
In your presence
A god of destruction
Taking life at will
Lies are his essence
Down by the barn
He slides on hay
Slithering with sweeties
He laps up his prey
