2 jacks...

dents...

At half past midnight
Traveling in the morning
Circles
And
Mountain passes
And there
Next to a wooden swan
Jackie Stevens plays
The soul of it
Dents
And all
He plays the song

soaring...

Blue painter's tape waving
A gull now two
Soaring
And three
Silence and quiet on the telephone wire
Crows caw
Goldfinches flit
A breath
A sun
A coffee pot
Orchids and a cactus flower
Now

rrk (1935-1977)...

i hear roland kirk...

Lubec
Raining in the trees
Again
And in the sky this morning
Again
And again
A horn
;
I hear Rahsaan Roland Kirk (legendary saxophonist 1935-1977)
And Misty

a sparrow jumps...

The rose is cold
The daisy too
A sparrow jumps
And the geraniums are quiet
The meadowlark is awake though
Strings sing from there
My what a foggy day she said
Accompanied
By that distant horn
That distant flower
That distant...
Distant
The rose is cold
The daisy too
And
A sparrow jumps

happy birthday, jean!...
