Jojo's Roses
There's a fabulous frost across Michiana.
I'm thinking about buying firewood.
Nine more days until we pick up Jojo from Chicago.
Gotta buy wood!

The Synaxis of the Archangel Larry and Other Bodiless Minds
It isn't going to happen
Descartes had his dreams
----------------and meditations
I have in me an idea of God
But it's fading
I will tell you
We were in the business
--------of rehabilitating dolls
Their site of origin
---------------long past bombed
Culls for the future
For whatever reason
--------------I painted the heads
Fashioned wire doll bodies
Spun cotton around wire
---------------into the loosest skins
When we spoke their bodies stiffened
Someone breathed logos
It wasn't god

Granite Railway
At night we heard the chirping
-----------of the diesel frogs
A common crossing
-----------beneath the trestle
Vagabonds
A boy stretched out like Jesus
-----------He already knew
Monuments
The future engraving granite
----------into each of his ribs
Our hearts were really pumping
Cathoom, cathoom
I watched a train churn slowly above us
Graffitied and loud
The engineer's arm waving
His face out of view

Leon Gambetta Flees Paris in a Balloon
5.
Flight 5970
On the very lips of your intended
---------An aspirational cabal
Pink neon floating vacancy
The rope you are holding has torn
---------the flesh from your palms
4.
Under mysterious circumstances
----------you have taken a room
Near The Inn at Grinder's Stand
---------------(now a wheat field)
A woman is moaning
3.
A woman is always moaning
2.
You have drifted
Beyond The Alleghenies
They're closing
------------The aboriginal lands
Sorry settlers!
This is the last call
1.
You fear fire and bodies of water
The weather is dry
A horse has lost itself in the forest
Leif Erickson has landed in L'Anse aux Meadows

Raking & Words
Well, I did find the rake and used it just long enough to realize family intervention was needed. My sister-in-law, amazing woman, sent my brother, my nephew, and their lawn tractor. The lawn looked amazing for almost four hours, then it started to rain and all those leaves that were still clinging to the trees came down. I guess the family will be back again soon.
On the good side, rain is fabulous for writing. Last night my dreams came in words, pages and pages of words. I'm curious if other writers have this phenomena in their dreams. My words were like a novel. George Bush was being punched in the face. I mean, the dream was just like reading a novel. Turning the pages. The words streaming out of my thoughts. I guess you had to be there.

One Perspective
Q. All right. Have you tried anything other than well drilling people, any other types of work or business?
A. Yeah, I tried electrician. I didn't like it, though. It scared the death out of me.

Lively
For days now I have had grand plans to post wildly eloquent verse and prose all over this blog, but for life! Whew! Concerts, weddings, workings.... So, not a long post, just a note to say I'm alive and lively, but not so much writerly. Soon.
