ayaladn

ordinary land
loam & loess clay mix’d sand
drest leaf mold compost

enfold a golden
dandelion fallow land
in windrows along

telemigrant road
in wasteland an abandon
only we tarry

neoclassical
entrances and exits
with designations

end at the same place
down an uptown boulevard
in forget it land’s

thoroughfare footpath
over to a fall in row
right below a wall

left-handed and that
natural affinity
to a fallen wall’s

blood lime and mortar
european immigrants
from affinity

worth a line of words
halv’d and slic’d and radishes
yellow bananas

a ten minute shoe
felt pads rub a showroom rug
tender toe bum knee

entertain delay
relace a few knots redone
for a better day

anywhere a fit
left a print the right step on
lost in a shoe tree

 

a semi column
rid of a driver afoot
roll’d down an up ramp

on a cloudless day
westward at lands end a floe
like an oarknot tipp’d

another old line
now over what time ten four
drive-in stars at seven
