Heat

Squirrel prostrated /

By the heat: flaccid, empty, /

Victim indiscrete.

“Stream”

The stream of color /

the leaves of sound /

the grounding of light /

into the Earth we are bound.

Many songs

Nature is rhythm: /

many songs chirping, buzzing, /

murmuring onward.

“Some thrones”

Some thrones

Sometimes the throne is /

a mulch pile, a dead threshold /

waiting to be thrown.

Reflection

Do we fret and strut /

Our hour upon the stage then /

Leave unreflected?

Damnation

The Devil’s Tongue blooms /

Under summer’s hot, first days /

Sun and damnation.
