got my
got my new frames heated,
twisted, they fit snugger ... more snug.
so many words in my heart.
two hours later i am still wearing
my new glasses.
recently toasted,
they not me.
wanna draw for high card?
(i'm thinking about this one.).

do i
do i ... do i.
words, that word
to say the things that pile all over,
i see, i know.
now i said "things", another non-word
i use as yes as i can, or faster.
the beat text is happening like a rogue wave.
do keep eyes shut when water splashes
just a blink, you see, of course
and off course.
make a melody ... a melody.
hum a melody, go ahead.
softly.

nuts are for
then doing with
like cooking, baking,
donuts or making of a pie.
so: we pick 'em or the squirrel gets 'em
when the tree leaves nuts.
donuts sounds extreme, i know.

season
now a change of scene;
from no socks to long socks,
there is no in between
.
help us
the USA builds,
why not build one less
and put the money, an estimated 606 million for one,
towards helping disabled children.
that's a lot of money.
Now, tell me again, which political party
is the one that works for the people?

for the people
you know these giant bombers
the USA builds them;
why not build one less
and put the money
towards helping disabled children.
that's a lot of money.
Now, which political party
is the one that works for the people?

dear october
here near october,
with only a couple days to go,
it feels like july again,
i mean now ... so hot and dry,
wow, holy cow, rolling fat clouds crowd the sky.
they are nice.
it is so hot you seek relief
in the shade, under a big tree;
where you've got fat leaves
in a thin breeze,
watch them clouds ... slowly rolling by.
i mean it.

on tv
featuring ten wonderful homes to see.
i clicked it off accidentally
then spent an hour trying to find it.
i did not find it again.

ten
leaning toward October
night wind can make it cool;
no need for jackets yet, however
month ten is on the way.

near june
one damp
brown leather foot
after another
crept the woods
to a lake and canoe
where two
set off as few would do
to pursue the climbing amber sun
(not yet in view)
and jumping swimming fish
(deep in the blue)
the deer and bear and birds
what they saw
no one knew
This dawn poem is here already ... i brought it back to post again ... just because.

grow trees
cut them into poles, and
string 'em with wires
all over the world.
until we think of something better

myanmar
she read the morning news
told me as we drove
thirty easy going miles on straight blacktop.
it was 66 degrees 85 later ...
don't have a watch, Enough ...
to a slow down, hometown breakfast ... shop ...
an establishment ...
families walking with all they had,
escaping so they would not be shot.
here the restaurant is open this holiday, labor day -
whatever that means.
women and children and old walked.
the men are all dead
a woman carried a cooking pot,
another a solar panel.
in the corner restaurant
having an omelet with toast and fried potatoes
the lady kept bringing more coffee
i thought about the people walking.
what a world.

water cover
jesus criminy,
birds float in the air,
boats are there to share,
they are helping out;
Texas has flooded.
more area than i can imagine.

that deep in flowers and thistles
rocks and birds and running water

color up
dress yourself carefully, will ya?
a mess of us are ready ...
so what's it going to be?
how about pizza and a beer
watching those Indians play ball?
to the wire, when they wrap it up,
those boys of the fall ...
and summer. of course.
we spent a lot of time with them.
god we cheered.
from beginning to seasons end;
and after snows we'll do it again, don't you know.

come home to feel summer running,
going to cool and color soon.
