red light

kids
in red shirts
-pure energy …

they demonstrate
teamwork.

black checked
flannel-an american

-rolls over;
his flag,

waving,
in a wheel chair …

a state-
worker goose
-steps up to the capitol.



elm

a race:
the seeds

are off, this
starting line …

ovulated; borne
 … quivering over
the early april wind. turning …

all depends upon how
slowly they take in reaching
the kentucky blue-

and, far out; then,
that period between being
picked up, again;

thereafter,
carried away …

what amount of dirt,
will mingle with the right
allotment of rain.
           


in concert

grass is a lush
pile of skinny shits
-sticky

limbs spread
to catch the band;

and, from a wooden stage,
many offspring.
 


chicken oregano

it’s not a carrot,
or celery,

dangled
on a limp
string; pulled …

and, there will be no flinging
rice for me.

to go
from soup to nuts,

why don’t you hike up
the falls

-i’d love
to have

a better look
 … back

at you.
