showing my daughter
my childhood ‘fish’ jackknife
she promptly says:
“i’ll put that in your grave
when you die”
the wheel
no longer turning
but still a wheel

While planting bulbs
my wife unearths
a childhood cap gun of mine
I hold it
trying to grasp back then
galls…
the very gall
of them!

blowing across
the plowed field
a sheet of newspaper
with who knows what
kind of news
the day
it was struck
going on and on…

my eye-
a knot hole
in the old barn
the children
peek
into the old barn…
looking on line
about another symptom
the hypochondriac

creating a space
in himself
that can’t be filled
– his lengthy ritual
seaside walks
the way
water comes and goes
on the beach
