| 1 Poem a Day for April |


LightquakesIts the happy ones people hate for all their sighs as winter waves setting in the shores, quiet yet profound; I am the lightning bolt by the telephone tower outside Cleveland; I am striking everywhere. Yet how can you hear me here where thoughts are softer than memories you have of bench sitting after soccer?Lightquakes
Memories of
strawberry fields
after first rush, picking the old, dropped berries up in their purpleness and looking to see if theyre ok; youre caught in comfort and lost out of touch of those that matter, dear poet, locked out in hate


BrightI want dreams to be bright.Bright
Sight unfolding past blackness bold in its misting of drip-like motel stalactites, it's how I want yellows bursting past sunken eyes, full with greens so unseen in these leaking pipes, lazy windpipes - loves and hope in images
that dreams may be -
that leave, faint, while some narrow bridge between world and mind,
mindsight as it is, boastless arrives; so thus then get up with little soul-lights left flickering on, on after that first leap
into the sudden unremembered sky of some long g


psychicIn some crazy kind of sight I see myself labored over by millions wanting to know who I am, what, if anything at all, I was. I wish for people to bury me whole to dig up my corpse later on and make love with science to the size of my skull.psychic
I see monitors tracking fleeting brainwaves as I die, in hopes to hold every little thing left behind; in a bold move
they clone me to link many more loving words together and once more lead the free world on home.
A creaking copse of trees will likely be the truth of

Whiskers and WitchesWhen Jonathan found the cat head, he shrieked. The sound, squeaky and somewhere on the so-la-ti part of the scale, didnt go far. It hung over the fur turfs of the tail, having gotten snagged on a bared rib bone. After Jonathans little heart resettled somewhere around the area of his chest cavity, he unclenched his small fist from his throat. His heart didnt drop to his heels again.Whiskers and Witches
Jonathan swallowed a few times and crept around the log, back to the clearing. He was nearly an adult now, and the cat he squeezed his eyes and remembered the eye-socket with a shudder was dead. Like the owl Andrew had f

The color of the sky reminded me of when mama stands by the window twirling her topaz necklace. Looking out into the street at the heat coming of the black top like a wavy dragon. I can see its mouth biting at me, but it is not mean, it is just displaying that it is strong and could bite me if it wanted to. The sun smiles through the beads all orange and pretty. Sometimes I stand by the window light and hold a bead up to my eye and look into a new new blurry yellowy, orangey world. Like when you stare at something too long. And if she catches me doing it she smacks the back of my hand. Not so

cold childsilver festoons plummet over sorry heads as I cover deeper my illmilk hair, my fingerscold child
wrapped so tight in bands,
furlined bands to keep out what is not of body.
what is cold
but lack of mother's chest of father's back of teethprey in heap? is cold just groundfur, everywhere, coatlike?
is it not creation? to fight against groundfur, to live. no groundfur, no life. only groundmother,
only stone.
from where groundfur comes: a shedding in reverse;

growth in the days of stoppingTell me little plant in your light-ways and dirt-ways how you stopped us in place, plantedgrowth in the days of stopping
us to plant you and only you and pause for a while; what made us yearn to talk and listen to our people and know what we meant when we came home to speak after meat-gather food-gather and know what it was to call the groundmother something, to call the greatsky something, to have sounds from the head and from the chest that told for our need to be.
Tell me little plant what your plans are for our men
and women setting up moreandmore woody lean-tos in the side of this mounta


the builder's sonI want to tell father I'm tired of laying bricks so I'll tell you: I'm tired of this mud and stone and grass and dirt, brown red muck set in little sections to make a wall to make a home so it can be lived in for the next twentyhundred years undisturbed by anyone real. Real people, the people who take life and eat fast and make things not the ones who sit and wait on their packed floors weaving wonders in their head; I feel like making a tall wall just to throw upon their heads.the builder's son
I justify my anger through my everlasting desire to help, let us love more the man with
