in weather and in desire:
clouds of rain and sweat.

again falls early morning.

where hope has died and love /
withers in the sun.

my ear hears only stale words. /
Summer tastes empty.

Ear of golden corn; /
kernels snap free in my mouth. /
July between my teeth.

Full moon fading West. /
Orange-red rays stroke the East. /
Summer’s first day.

A thousand eyes long /
this river of ice and time /
we adventure in love.

Brilliant red cherries – /
The tree of spring temptation – /
Disguising the pits.
