Poems from May 15 -2003 found in "May Day May Day"

on the trail again
just to smell the privet
and honeysuckle

behind hollyhocks

the hard-edged, less-poppy tune

of early Beatles

dirt

moving out of state

for a golf course

bumper sticker: "Peace . . . 

live in it or rest in it."

driver's black eye

corn chips and iced tea

by the patio door

--rain splattering in

with each thunderclap

struggling deeper

into the covers

better than FM --

humming cicadas by day

tree frogs at night

purring baby bird

clamped to the boy-savior's hand

calico villian
