Rite Aid Ruled Writing Tablet

He is not as well spoken
as he is written.
Raindrops, wet snowflakes,
and dank woolen mittens.
An unheard spoken word;
broken words spoke instead:
"Heed, hither, lest you catch cold!
Hither, haste!" Down hill on top sled.

(06/20/05)


Under and through the small boulder arc
speckled and stained on its rain-rounded edges
by moss
and
rusted copper gate and frame.

Black cold iron
rod and wire fence
cuts into the courtyard
making corners and walls with a leafy vine.

Stacked and broken
cinder well
hot, stale, soggy air
lurks and lingers at the bottom.

(?/?/05)
