dewpoint delight ~
a hint of fall in the air
the luscious, golden
promise of autumn

this Irish lass
says Go Cyclones!!
sightless eyes
mute mouths, deaf ears
the disablement
of the American people
~ for Wesley

loading the boat after a day on the water
sandhill crane flies overhead, magnificently
late August sun taps the hilltop, chef’s kiss
cross-legged in the grass,
inchworm, tiny as a pinhead,
traverses a slender blade —
its inchworm movements,
this, its very existence —
unexpected joy,
a catharsis
I was not aware
I required
cellphone radar images: red, nearly black; moving fast
cellphone alerts: danger ahead; seek shelter
cellar: a place of refuge
cellar: where one goes & hopes not to die
once upon a time
I looked into my future
both eager & afraid —
watching my shadow,
searching for clues

gargantuan footsteps
the ones they loved most
have gone away
