on the radio innings drift
in and out of sleep

honeybees
living in the wall-
the realtor’s frown
the parking lot full
of glittering chrome:
Custer’s battlefield
longer than my break
the spring sun
holds me
after the party
undressing
myself

far end of town,
wide u-turn
the hot rod
cicada whining –
she’s already talking
about Christmas
back from vacation…
fiddling and fiddling with
the combination
minimal order-
the waiter looks out
the window

morning zazen:
marriage counseling
ourselves
daybreak frost
the sound of leaves falling
through leaves

under the manhole
the night gives
a gurgle
goldenrod gall
quivers-
blowing snow

the old canoe
the only piece of roof
left on the shed
end to end
three Ramblers take part
in the overgrown field
everyday she waits
at the bus stop;
just to wait
the summer it rained
all summer…
dwarf sunflowers without faces
cleaning the poop out…
his little Superman
underpants

she’s waited up…
to have some last words
with me
a solemn part
another baby
babbles
the plumber
kneeling in our tub
– talking to himself
staff meeting-
he stands his pen
on end
our son spills his milk –
not an iota
of reaction from him
sentinel pine-
roots running every which way
showered in moonlight
back to its hole-
the woodchuck shot through
its hindquarters
