Clouds moving over mountains,
their night work -
some rain in the buckets.

broken tower bell,
no tongue, the recluse spider
shapes its uniform prayer

Even from my front porch
the rusted sewing machine
yearns for golden thread.

to hear leaf beds give
weight to what has fallen
much to learn there in that

before the pine door -
stooped body like these wooden planks
more knots than wood

From the porch, high wind.
The moon, a corner of it,
rides comfortably in clouds.

a star's all child's play now
late night track lilt wheels
tilt toward melting darkness

Fragment From An 11th Century Japanese Scroll

a better world is

between the teeth

on tips of tongues

on lip perimeters

strung by kisses

Scapegoats Devour Sins

Written in The Book of Judgement
only ink, the accusing
words by drool undone,
stains their bearded chins.

Only This To Hear

only this

to hear the dipper spilling
too full
the deep well
yielding

knowing a hand of dew
brings such sweetness
wet, cool

wet
