Funnel-shaped flowers
Once open, a brilliant red
A real firecracker.

Weep For The Crowds 1 comment
Pipevine Swallowtail Butterfly On A Bearded Penstemon — Image by kenne
Thinking about a poem I’ll never write.
With gut on wood and hide, and plucking thumb,
Grope and stutter for the words, invent a tune,
In any tongue, this moment one time true
Be wine or blood of rhythm drives it through—
A leap of words to things and there it stops.
Creating empty caves and tools in shops
And holy domes, and nothing you can name;
The long old chorus blowing underfoot
Makes high wild notes of mountains in the sea.
O Muse, a goddess gone astray
Who warms the cow and makes the wise man sane,
(& even madness gobbles demons down)
Then dance through jewelled trees & lotus crowns
For Narihira’s lover, the crying plover,
For babies grown and childhood homes
And moving, moving, on through scenes and towns
Weep for the crowds of men
Like birds gone south forever.
— from A Stone Garden by Gary Snyder

the story of love is hello and goodbye…until we meet again”

You
missing, bone
hard the trees
seep their white
bloom through stem,
tendril, leaf.
And your beard:
light curling
through the sweet,
dark hair, all
blossoming.
How far do
these white clouds
reach, from here
to that place
you are now?
