The River is wide
yet in the summer runs
carelessly shallow.
…
Find a place to cross
River stones guide the way home
on the other side.
…
Laying within reach
across the River running —
a wolf sheds her coat.

Leap Yearning 02/29/2008
…
…
Leap yearning today
for release — oh, the torment!
Unrequited love.
…
Leap into this day
charged with release
from a debt that never belonged.
…
Discipline and rules
the taste of freedom –
how sour needs her sweet.
…
Freedom is never in doubt
question not the net cast out
come upon fences.
Holding Time 02/27/2008
…
…
Holding time empty hands –
free hollow feathers link…
a passage unbroken
A Rake 02/24/2008
A rake in rough hands
reasoning with advanced rot
rigorous reaping.
Not even ground can
tame the swelling tide of doom
pulling at the loom.
Sweet little boy – still,
time has stood undernourished
manhood’s wasted taste.
