of a very autumn...

a poet
a drummer
scribbling the beat
- - making a rhythm
painting a song
of a very autumn

wilbur's north...

This day
Autumn shouts
No
She shivers
I swing the door open
There
The gumball machine the candy case
The soft drink cooler
I sit a minute & watch on the wall
Old town men
Tipping their hats
Proper in their woolen cloaks
& the ladies & the children in the square
The ladies
Musing
The newest in fashion & modern living
The children
Running & chasing a ragged ball
Its stitches dissolving before their eyes
&
A train sputters filling with water
Deer & antelope
Charade
On the plain outside of town
&
Tonight a winter moon
- -
I order a ham salad sandwich

the moon said...

The purple hydrangea flower
came in last night -
The moon said

in the piano room...

The boat is in the moon
The moon
Shone
In the piano room
James P. Johnson
The
Man
The moon
Shone
Midnight blue
Then
Alice blue
Gleam gleaming
Sphere
In
The
Blue
Blue
Bay
The moon
Shone
In the piano room
&
There
In the piano room
The boat is in the moon

they...

They
Picasso
Hemingway
&
Garbo
They
The flowers of mountain & sea
Relishes
&
Blues
In the great savannahs
Of the heart
