8/31/15: Regarded, Perhaps, as Essential

from here I see

a channel in the clouds

right for fish

8/30/15: What It’s Better Not to Know

dew gathering

in grass—clouds settling

for earth

8/29/15: Don’t You Already Know It Will Be Miserable?

remembering

barked commands—a calico

chased into my path

8/28/15: Evening Commute

brushed

by eyes glancing this way—

so much lies in us

8/27/15: The Blind Explain

gusts through screens—

the hissing cries of snakes

stirred

8/26/15: Fig Tree

your fruit grow—

alveoli—swollen—

air made flesh

8/25/15: Today’s Odysseus

busy under

a trash can hood, still searching

for food or home

8/24/14: Maybe, Might, Could Be

hammer sounds—

every blow assembling

something imagined

8/23/15: I Don’t Want to Remember Dreams

movie projector

bumping along like a road

under tires

8/22/15: Recalled to Life

how long

can you ignore bird song

beckoning?
