MIRRORMENT Birds are flowers flying and flowers perched birds. - Archie Randolph Ammons

SMALL SONG The reeds give way to the wind
and give the wind away

I’ve always been highly energized and have written poems in spurts. From the god-given first line right through the poem. And I don’t write two or three lines and then come back the next day and write two or three more; I write the whole poem at one sitting and then come back to it from time to time over the months or years and rework it.

CALLING
Wind rocks
the porch chair somebody home.
