Re: Beth & Santiago

Santiago, I see buildings at river's edge, a carnival with Ferris wheel, bridges over the river. Far off you told me of mountains, a cabin. My camera wants to picture it. I'm a flower against black mind. I am land that crumbles where it meets the sea. My tracks curve into fog. I am city on both side...

Beth & Santiago

Beth, I see trees in single file, from here to where they disappear behind hills. The shore, sand & exposed rocks, a river valley with moon above. Two elephants, floating clouds, a leopard at rest. A tree grows surrounded by water, you rest your chin on your fingers. I am a stone in water, only my a...

Snow for the past two days, Jack, but not much accumulation, winter though, fire going - been difficult dealing with firewood this year - old back injury flares almost instantly with the bending over - so I go it slow. Hell, Jack, you been writing zuihitsu for years, decades - probably the biggest z...

Re: Zuihitsu

2:46 a.m. - *Tug Hill* Killing is killing. Don't use the word "treatment". Hello, Spoon, dish it up. Yesterday is a crow on a branch of a tree across the river. You look & he is there. You look down at the table, count the coins there. You look back to the tree and the crow is gone. Poetry? yeah, m...

Re: Zuihitsu

Thx, Jack. No mouse turds here - I have about 18 cats or so though the last couple of days I have not seen them all together at feeding times. I have one I worry about, she's smaller than the rest and timid to boot. She always waits until all the other cats are done feeding then she will go in for w...

Re: Zuihitsu

I got this homemade poem factory in the woods by the river. Just a shack behind the trailer affair. Nothing fancy. Almost non-digital. I hook memories to the present moment out there. It's specialist work, real snake-eye shit. You got to nail them tight or they will blow up in your face. Only real a...

"I mean here is non-lunch time
but you should eat something
the moon wants to visit & you look hungry"

we could be two birds
on the same branch
looking in the same direction
at words floating in the air
