A weird cadence

A weird cadence

An eerily fantastic flow
of sounds in language

An uncanny,
so as to inspire superstitious fear,
extravagantly fanciful
outpouring of vibrations
transmitted through the air
which stimulate
the organs of hearing
and produce
sensations interpreted as
a system of linguistic
signs or symbols.

Objects are Relationships

Objects are relationships
of energy
Apparently stable
a rock is
ever changing

This old guy,
a building contractor,
loved to tell me
about life
and one thing he said
stuck with me:

"Pursuit is the evidence
of desire."

At a tag sale
on the way to the Berkshires,
I hear a guy say,

"It's a good day
if you're not in a hole
with them throwing dirt
on you."
