    with hate, into cadavers

    October the 20th

    mute

    beyond this once
    within the once
    within the once within

    How odd to have faith in a circle
    Open enough to uncrowd us.

    color me utopia

    propagate its scores of states
    with pockets full of stone
    accustomed to clear light.

    June the 2nd

    in the air

    About the Lakes, there is quietness,
    a sense of dislocation;

    blur

    It happens as the eyes expand,
    these slits of time, un-focus,
    as everything grows winking,
    or magically comes, half alive.

    November the 17th

    what can not go wrong

    goes on without you, what
    will not come back
    to the moment before

    October the 26th

    forever—when—viewed by a Monday

    There is a place in isn’t,
    that is not, nor ever was,
    what is

    we are beautiful

    June the 15th

    missionary

    have ground the sand before

    November the 11th

    while gathering the canyon

    It does not herald, no
    instead—
    it waits—

    November the 10th

    the scheduled remembrance

    In the room for minds
    they speak of love and peace.
    We stand removed,

    October the 24th

    the greatest eminence of the hill
