comes a hurricane
And what
to make it through the day
thus comes
to enfold the flood
that inspiration's future holds
and cures bold
as Isabel beckons blood
And onward
she trifles taunting
slow speed while
all the while
a deep vengeant speed ignites
in the eye
the hurricane waits awhile
Toward mass
encouraged by the daunt
of everyday wait
it wrestles with
the sleeping core
and outward doth
decay the gate
Belly burns
of spit forth steam
from upon potatoes boil
if off a certain
wind does blow
it is not a nation's toil
throughout the night
the earth doth shake
and creates a renter's foil
but alas does mock
and soon consume
the common owner's soil
Soon the bridge
will quake and roll
from beneath the feet
of all who stood
such close a guard
upon the street
of all the common good
Waiting now for night to fall
the eager pilgrim dread
the slow procession coming forth
of all the unheard dead
Out cast a spell
to entreat the old
of all of those consumed
as one who knows
not of the weight
of the undertaker's gloom
And then set forth
to entreat the source
of the spirit yet and pure
bedecked in linens
white and solid
shaped as of a pearl
And onward come
the sweetest pink
to alert of impending night
that settles forth
a red dusk rare
that culminates delight
The bubbles of
the acid come
to create a steady blur
brought forth
by pale moon yellow hope
that only few have heard
The speaking of
such whispers soft
of secret and absurd
the secret thoughts
of those that creep
in ancient angles long
a melancholy mournful tune
of those that are old
and gone

call
cracking
weighted dross of time
aging filtered toward distill
of never
of not
of next to almost
dry leaf scent wafts
through fall knowledge
as the dogs follow trail
of knowing
of need
of next hope hinging

autumn damsel hope
fresh red dripping
night scent and sounds abound
out in open air
dreaming
saw the fat pale cactus kick out sharp thorns of horror
as if to hide the succulent sweet beneath
soft foil against magenta coil bud beckoning lips to taste
tender meat bloom
swoon against olive dimpled smooth of day beginning ripening death
the end of leaves stretch toward sun's end in blinding burst of beauty
quickly gold gives way to burnt orange desire that crackles a snap quick curtail
toward heavy everyday brown
ground down disintegrated dust of must having throttled living out
amongst the street stones scorched by the searing days undone
but one hope left, that to see the binding of memory;
shell of crisp wisp autumn apple air firmly planted

meraviglioso il mare
Could it be, fate
takes again, promised breath
swelling birth jabs at late tide
awash with black weed tangle
I could not tell of
the great lap angle swell
clutching the shells and stones
want of solid's surface
bleed salt break liquid
on velvet shore pouring
the luxury of smooth
sooth topping inclined

could
stunned plunge into wake
of possible near sending
ending lunge of every
hopeful hope
could it be such
that at near arrival
departure is
bientôt
Non
let it not be so
as though I did not hear you
did not know
as yesterday
awakening
pure strength of
place in the sun
Veritable
need
seeks
moment
assured
un-undone

valved voice
Whitman's wind
shaded trees that lift
soaring over fed
by deep filtered other
sought inception
culling presupposes
in unique twain
searching
upon meeting
by slight tipped
whisper words only
every
grazing in soft
flooded could
coming slowly
into oblivion
