Care-Free Garden

                              I guess

I believe that

               one

                              practically

                              bathes

the fellas

picture

                              and you can

a little to one side

               eyes straight

sometime soon

(1-inch window, left-center margin, p. 164-165)

Skin Thrift

               men

this one               face

                             

                              true

bridegroom

               his youth

standing

bittersweet

bread

                              half

a             fine mind

spring till fall

                              I stayed

(1-inch  window, left-hand margin, p. 160-162.)

Twice the Same

                              years

perhaps

               property

               fair

               body

yawned for more

that hour

approaching

               regular

learning

beneath pleated skirts

the campus arm

(1-inch window, left-hand margin, p. 157-159)

Deliberate Hat

let him

use it

married               to

low prairie

                              a

future

               the

river can’t see

(1-inch window, right-hand margin, p. 154-155)

A Woman Scattered

and now

horses

boots

                              that laughter

                              that lay

                              as food

(1-inch window, right-hand margin, p. 140-41)
