a lonely dog,
insect arpeggios,
slow rolling fog:
autumn’s song and
the highway hum.
May Monday morning
never come.

going with the flow

Swansdown swirls in the frosty dawn,
and the wind’s song is woebegone.

old monkish dormitories
left to the lichen
low doorways, tiny cells,
and silent contemplation

silver fish in the shallows
river-cold then gone

lonely stretches
of shorn grass except high up,

out of the rain and snow,
laughing away long dark days

Happy New Year!
the cold arrives like
