October 20, 2009


































strange brew . . .
the froth of winter
thickening
the monk's resolve
to keep each candle it


a few stars
tonight,  beneath caterpillar's
blanket


i lost the
foot race when i
woke up . . .
my wife beating
me with her fists


the sun's heart
beat in winter . .
missing


i can't
deny the emptiness
i feel tonight
knowing your words
are no longer


under my
blanket a few stars
to wrestle


between my
my teeth, pieces
of seaweed
waiting for their
hearts to explode


is it winter,
a dream, the moon
sipping coffee?


if only i
could seize the anger
i have for
you and hurl it
back into the sea


like every
night, star's without
a blanket
