Shirt III

She is an artist

Every move brightly animates

My mental movie.

Shirt II

Her goose-pimpled flesh

Smell of turpentine and musk

caresses my nose.

Shirt

An unbuttoned
Lemon yellow shirt loosely
Hangs from her shoulders.

The History of Tonight

Alan proceeded Paar both sat up all night to talk to anyone who showed.

Carson shot Paar while McMahon downed Hugh,

Later Leno beat Letterman.

September Exit

September exit is
On the wind - coloring leaves
As they dance away.

A wanderer

A wanderer passes
The vineyard as the sun licks
The dew frosted grapes.

September 29,2008.

Fog II

Insensate, reaching
Not able to touch something
Yet knowing it's there.

September 23, 2008.

Fog

A white soft-edged
Nothingness with which every
Object blends - fog.

The Runner V

Leaning, breaks the tape
Flailing at the air, stumbling
dropping to his knees.

October 13, 2008

The runner IV

The runner's wan face
A vision of agony
Limp lips, vacant eyes.

September 10, 2008

The Runner III

The rain drops driving
Into his flesh, stinging his face
And hands, small, biting.

September 9,2008

The runner II

Gaunt, leaning forward
Into the wind, rain washing
In waves over him.

September 9,2008

The Runner I

Out the window
In the distance - a figure
A lonely runner.

Bus to the Beach XIV

The bus clattered
Down Western away from dreams
Away, towards home.

Bus to the Beach XIII

Sun glinting windows
Signal the arriving bus
And the boy gets on.


September 3, 2008

Bus to the Beach XII

Lying on the rocks
Hear the water splish, quiet
Evening settles in.



September 3, 2008

Bus to the Beach XI

Like a bully that
Is spoiling for a fight with
A queasy easy mark.


September 2, 2008

Bus to the beach X

Feel the under tow
That could grab them and hold them
Drag them out to the sea.
