the crowd presses
to look in-
zen garden
old barn
shifting in time
the view out back

to show me
the spirit of a train
I wish for one to come-
these overgrown tracks
I walk along
once upon a time
the town thrived out there…
on the plains

gravity, photography, poetry, sheds, tanka, turkey vultures, wabi sabi
full of rain
the river races along
past everything here-
I can’t shake this sense
I’m living on borrowed time
leaning back
as turkey vultures sun
on the roof…

still holding up some roof
and letting light in too…

old farmhouse-
the pitch of the
patterned linoleum
the last family
long gone
with the wind

my youth spent
gathering strength and solace
of friends near and far-
these short years later
losing them one by one
in the world
of lost and found
always waiting…
