godliness
From Vol 14, 2008

places unswept gather dirt
under fingernails grime builds with them
in places hidden and forgotten
filth flowers

windowpane holds universe
parallel universe in bathroom sink
wormholes in drainholes

i crept under and around with the silverfish

i tried to squeeze my body
into something filthy

call mom in cheshire regarding:
vacuum
table
and chairs.

call tom fun and get him to go

*

familiar backs and hair cuts receding into the complacent blend of side-
walk cracks, sunlight, and subsequent shadows.

*

my eyes follow the graffiti footprints
across the vertical plane of smooth concrete (imperfect with pores)
just cooling now from the blind gape of the sun

From 7 Mondays of Years Past

Bath

From Volume XII, 2007

The faint green ring, the high tide line

where the seaweed shows

the water where to stop.

From the flecks of

flung grass that stick to

frogs' backs, Dad's lawn-stained socks.

From cartwheel attempts,

staining knees and heels of hands

pounded into feet over barefoot mouths.

From lime green lime popsicle drips.

From the Luna moth in the bathroom window.

Firefly flash left on our hands.

World Poetry Day

For all the poetry lovers out there (and I suspect there might be some reading this blog) I thought it might be worth mentioning that Sackville is going to be celebrating World Poetry Day tomarrow (Saturday). The event kicks off at 2pm at the Bridge Street Cafe, where there will be poetry readings by people from all sorts of the different communities inside the town. Should be good!
