Red fall foliage
the Sun at noon
glorious
early evening
lengthening of shadows
blare of car horns
Catbird 55
morning --
Eos musses my hair
flirtatiously
a sprig of gladiolus
in a soda bottle vase
ghosts of the poor
shreds of
a cocoon
a spirit liberated
Pillars of the earth
live oaks standing
as if primordial
early morning exercise
the Sun's pull up
clears the horizon
