121

leaflight

a dance with the old bones

in Groundhog Year

for Jean Kent

(towards our conversation)

look into day

go unseen – here!

Nietzsche’s hundred pockets

every mad step inspired

plenty of life

not enough lives!

plague at the gate

I have called it forever

now it comes catching the clock

I promise I won’t look

green thought, green shade

by blade and later leaf it

socks worn through

why worry?

in person with the petal

and underwing

swing by

I love a branch impeded view

keep the tree

sweep far off

in rounds

and kid ourselves a garden

(doctors will find them in us as well)

sunbright

wind to its old tricks

weather and it comes to seasons

everyone is rising here

everyone lays low

a Mr Lincoln whiff that red

look around

in air and under all about

and ask myself

where is that music (?)

day makes of me

forget the world, remember this self

here where I am at home
