together ascending
the Tama River.
Maple leaves aglow -
woodsmoke and
rushing water.
Russet, yellow, brown
and green leaves -
burnishing the mountains.

dapples the dark sea,
beneath its white beam.
A brush of light,
sweeping across
the windowpane.
Retired lighthouse keeper

after ‘Sailing By.’

Mercury rapidly soaring -
asphalt regressing into
lava-like liquefaction.
Urban flyovers rising
high overhead, roasting
concrete shade below.
Glass walls so arid and smooth,
sun climbing by degrees
- a city sweltering.
