L'aura del campo


'é a lua, é a lua, na quintana dos mortos'
♣ Federico García Lorca ♣


Higgins Street Bridge, April 25th  2009, Missoula, Montana


L'aura del campo. A breeze in the meadow. So it began the last day of Spring, 2005; on the 16th day of the month of Light of the year 162. This is a supplement to my daily journal written to a friend, my muse; notes I do not share. Here I will share what the breeze has whispered to me.

the Abyss speaks

I am the crack
you fall into — the depths
you will never
escape,

in this darksome
lover's embrace — the balm
of bone and heart
healing.

Ah... to be orange amidst the blue,
in search of moisture, a sip of salt,
a spot of warmth among the dark;
light upon the fluttering breeze, a
mote to please the wandering eye
that settles on me, resting here, or
as I float against the celestial sky.
Ah, to be orange and not ignored.

The river is wide

The river rests —
frozen over.
Memories of the past a palimpsest
of snow
begging me to etch new beginnnings
but
the melt breaks through
like spring that follows winter
like summer that follows spring.
In autumn I thought I had time,
time enough,
but winter's blast has found me,
frozen me here
on the banks of cold waters
I shall never cross over —
again.

9 degrees

Nine degrees and falling falling
it's destination zero
but come the break of day old man
the rising sun's our hero.

Then will it melt the ice and snow
or will it make me fall?
that I cannot say old man
put on your grips or crawl.

It was actually 9 degrees and the low? Who knows. I didn't get up till noon.

Keep your distance

White ashes fall from livid skies,
chilled children of faraway waters,
pile wherever they can find a perch.

Protected from wind, they drift like dunes
as cold seeks to invade my refuge.

Only glass panes divide those living
from the dead while I watch flakes dance,
then stealthily seek a warmer nook.

A

the bear snoozes — oblivious in its cave
I sit by the cold window — watching snowflakes

[296a]

B

I sit on the toilet
thinking of today's meal
what comes out —
is yesterday's news

[296b]

C

cold descends on mountains — settles in the valley
Thoughts — like snowflakes — rise and fall and wander

[296c]

A

hiding from sunlight —
the cave-dweller lifts a book
sets it down again

[295a]

B

when where how
Oblivion responds
why why why

[295b]

C
sunlight sends tendrils
into his room — he cowers
in dark corners

[295c]

cold nips the wings
of those who soar above me —
rests in my bones

[178.294a]

The window pane
protects the green leaves —
I look out at snow

[178.294b]

smell of woodsy
mushrooms and acrid onions —
wintry thoughts fade

[178.294c]

The soft chair
that hugged young flesh — now hardened
bruises bones

[178.294d]

Pears

What's only good in pies and sauce —
apples! Overrated.

Adorning trees before the frost —
red and round or rotten.

Erase your nightmares now and seek —
a form more succulent.

And in an instant what appears —
Anjou, Bartlett, Comice.

Any opinion which ones you like?

Wintry haiku

A

snow, snow drifts,
the daughters of snow — caws
from winter's crow

[291a]


B

ice glazes
walkways — green pines tinkle
as we fall

[291b]


C

wind hollows drifts
turning everything white — where
did the mountains go

[291c]


D

slip, slide, slush
covers the walkways —
one red coat

[291d]


E

grey, grey, grey, more
grey than the sky can hold
— snow squalls

[291e]


F

one dark spot
amidst the 'spance of white —
Ah, a crow

[291f]


G

sunny beach day
we arrive in shorts
— locals shiver

[291g]


H

pointsettia
blooms — also red shorts
and redder sunburn

[291h]


I

so tired of rain,
we rejoice with the sun —
anyone thirsty?

[291i]
