as promised windows on the wall acrylic...


coconut lime & the cheap hotel...

Rain on the morning
The blue wood clapboards
Outside
Weathered splintered & broken
At the Cheap Hotel
Looking over
Butter Bay
Butter Bay
There then, she
Wrote songs
&
Painted pictures
Of
Annabelles & Misties
In their
Pink
Sweaters
&
Butter-color
Skirts
On Fridays at Butter Bay Butter Bay
Then,
The rain stopped on the morning
& she,
She
Rubbed on the lotion
Her new lotion
Coconut Lime Verbena
There then,
Compliments of the Cheap Hotel

a maine haiku...

The blue sun
this morning on the sea -
The dishes are done

windows (another)...

Windows & trees are the world & the sea
Out of my window on the wall
White birds skimming the bay, gulls
Seagulls swooping a white boat setting,
On a buoy flat & quiet slightly obscured
By two Christmas trees and a nearby mountain ash
There there
In the influence of Rod McKuen
&
All about the sailor in Him;
This morning
Paris-Three, L.A.-An Outstretched Hand & Tokyo-Fish Kites
There
Firewood, bricks & sticks stacked at the View Inn
On Geranium Hill, ballads
& shadows
Shadow Street on Geranium Hill
A sad new song
But;
The morning sun warms Shadow Street
&
There there are
Jazz poetry, leprechauns & silk
This morning

in the lobby...

In the lobby
Of the great hotel
A poet writes
In
A
Notebook
Little pictures & little stories
Flowers trees & windows
Matisse windows
Like
There
In the lobby
Of the great hotel
On the wall
