yowza

-no one really wants to be holderlin out in the garden

with a foot of snow gathered on top of his head-

jim harrison

what the white goat said to me this morning

i will whine and smile

watch me to see how

please don't take me lightly

i'm composed of solemn solidity

and

smell fantastic in the march sun

come on

belly down now

let's settle this morning

in the hoofing of hay

woops, looks like it's about time to take the reins again.

otherwise, this great big bird of the world will get out

from under me, and well, wouldn't it be a shame to be

midair with the globe beside me, all feathered and oiled

so as to avoid the saturation of rain and fog, while I?

a patch of mess? soak it all in without even toes?

all that my life's about really
