Mother Haze

The first time I saw you
you stepped off the curb
the streetcar slipped slowly
your hair was disturbed
the brown was strewn,
rivered across
a fading flush
as your thin limbs tossed
to the rush of your heart-beat:
covered in stiff wattage
locking your neck--
the whine of a ship's deck
bowed by wind

Dogs

The lonely dogs lurk
Skeletal by the feed
Black and black
at me

jaws clap clap
like oysters
about my neck

Up is the sky
down is me
about are the dogs
lonely?

New Season

Really a day just like all the others, bit warmer, brighter,
But for this cool wind which is a bit of a surprise,
toilet seats you think, colder than they should be, coldest
Thing around, colder than a hot bath that is too hot is hot, cold
like a baked potato is hot as a furnace, unbelievably hot, hot like a bite,
like a slap, like the book falling in the library, wind cold like that,
Offending sheltered buttcheeks,
Warm like spring.
