Classical torso
over Lakeside Park
A great tectonic shift in the skies
cloud geology comes forward
a sparkling day of white leviathans
Leave home
via 9th Street
Colorful jackets
demented poodle t-shirts
a paranoid shopper
all the latest style
Talisman
of the outdoor world
relieve the anguish
of an indoor life
The Chinese matron
with her jeweler's glass
drives a hard bargain
Totem pole in the park
by the neglected nature center
The Pacific Northwest
starts here
Vast cloud armada
heading East
this land needs moisture
Dig the panorama
The earth, the animals
the atmosphere
the rocky mountains
America
is an Indian thing
A vulpine cloud
in continual
metamorphosis
Thirteen snowy egrets
and one black coot
They all know me
my slow movements are
acceptable to bird life
Around every corner
clouds await
And the clouds
are nothing
if not omnipresent
Christmas wreath
is already up
probably owned
by a phantom plutocrat
who's never here
Mind clouds
at the Mountains of Madness
A parlour of ink
Slanting sun welcomes
the virginal marks
blinding them with
pseudo-science
Grooving is easy
change is going to come
None for me thanks
I'm saving mine for
a beige lampshade
The promise is to transfer
the phantasmagoria
on to your skin
Evening came swiftly
the clouds were now lurking
seeking me out
where I live
