HFB
scared shitless
pee'd my pants
froze stumbled stuttered
didn't bat an eye
hearts free
shirtless
pant and pant
sighed smiled
in the dark
I said her name
Pick up the Phone Please
move
walk run make a note
package hope
dial ring measure rope
ring ring ring ten
standing still
hang
doors locked razor knife
fading light
cutting loose a kite
we could give it time
losing will
stray
pace hide shiver wallow
love is feral
peerless ache throat narrows
ring ring ring ten
still
Tilden Park
Hills valleys fog whips
over the crest of unsure ends
Bellowing cows drift in the haze
Smoke dark shadows on the ridge
She asks, "So what a beautiful day"
I find that is all it is
Silent wish, collapsing weight,
our footfall lost to the wind
Five miles five words
Illusion slides down fanciful hillsides
eucalyptus bird whistle
A stone in the palm of my hand
1987 California
