to have options
is to live freely

a train whistle
at Kinston Station

a revolving light
at Point Judith

a singularly
remarkable oak

a few words
chosen and written

gratefulness
as the moon sets

again

The number of masts
on Wickford Harbor
declines with each day.

Sounds are fewer now,
squawking herons and
honking geese break

the screaming silence,
and where reflection
meets real is blurred

in an exceptional blue.

The myths of winter
are revealed slowly,

emptiness, stillness,
darkness, harshness,

but skies fill and fall
in the canon of snow.

It would be nice
to know the history
of birds.

Not birds in general,
but that bird
at Wickford harbor,

the only other living
thing stirring this
quiet morning.

If I wrote the poem
that made me famous,

I’d burn it, toss the ashes
up into an offshore breeze,

and wait to see if it ever
blew back my way again.

(not really though)

The creature
so desires war,
craves war, his phony wars
instigations of delusion,
maelstrom misogynies,
misguided missiles,
magalopolis morbidities,
and we are eaten,
consumed.

Fast approaching a

horror scape

that renders
humanity obsolete.

The business of
governance is
more the business
of business

and we the people
have lost
everything we
