upon a loom,
intricately woven,
by hands full of skill.
Having purpose,

your countenance
portrays beauty,
of blushing colors. . . .

Beatniks cover the coffee house listening to the poetry,
Each one resplendent in uncompromising black,
All seem the same but one does not blend into the pack
Because he is too perfect, too pale, too . . .

The wind is accelerated as the motorcycle crawls faster
Sound becomes a humming white noise deadening one’s fears

For my dear wife, Barbara, written August 20, 2007, on the shores of Shamrock Lake, just outside of Yosemite National Park.

weak and wet
freshly hatched
struggling out
