September Song

September Song(for Sarah)



Chill September days
show off
silver gulls,
suspended as they are
on strings of blue.


Caught in the updraft
I think of you,
and do not fully understand
how you turned my life around,
Or
how below became


above.

    assumed nothing
    as far as
    grammar
    is concerned
    but rote beautifully
    in the
    vernacular and
    in the evening
    too.
    Rules is rules
    ain't they?

Black and White Bay

Small lynx.
Inky onyx on
white and grey.

Maniac gibber
at gull and crow,
cursing through

the pane.

Blood and muscle
shot through green
keen,eye.

"Just wait.Just wait..."

He seems to say.

Ejh

What came to Ted that night,
heaved his hand
and burnt his pages and
gave us sage
and brutal phrases.
enormous, elemental flights
of reality.

Through birds-eye lens.
