traders and jobbers and lawyers and cronies
who speculate and siphon
such fellows are not my fellow citizens
Month: April 2016
our most sanguine expectations
a beautiful white villa in the glade on the hill
as symmetrical as mercantile interests and power
evaporates like conversations forgotten
and repeating
el viaje guano
the most tricky scoundrels
with soaring trees and deep bogs
loam peat clay sand
animalia prokaryota
breathing
the slim skin.
we etch tattoo and seal
scratch bleach and scar
girdling
scattering salve
a whirling doctor
haunted by raspy echoing
that brings no rain
pero tal vez olor amoniaco

the board believe
the colonists are happy and contented and comfortable
removed from contact with the laboring population from europe
amalgamating the subjects of king freeman
indebted for the great blessing of christianity
the injurious and burdensome replaced by the white.
and still we let boards attempt to believe.

whereas the scattered
exercise rights and customs of fathers
and regulate temporal concerns
fully immersed
as byzantium
shall we each find a time and place
to dance on the waters
of the sea that surrounds us
taxation without education
excluded from opportunities of respectability in humble confinement
from condescended illusions of independence.
a missed opportunity for assimilated cultural genocide
with sense of public purpose
steel rhizomes patapsco to ontario
stems rise and spread flowering brick and pavement
woodberry blue mount bentley springs glen rock
trout run roaring branch cedar ledge pine valley
montour falls rock stream
some wither before blooming not sustained
energy from physics little understood

blocks of dark banded gneiss
girdling in a jagged spiral
rising above the statue
absorbing sunlight
could be one of the plans he was waiting for others to lead
transition spiral
spinning steel booms along
wayside forest rivers streams fields mountains rocks
vibrating in new harmony
prime movers roll like firing cannon
on ribbons and zig zags
superelevation comforts
so many wheels turning
overthrowing
