lovliest
ashokan farewell waltz
lovliest
Poetry
lovliest
where as an unquote
columnar row’d a silence
minus the surplus
solid solar state
less the turnover of stones
in the wall’d market
the farmers a brick house
the masons’ drawl a short straw
coarse hair as two coats
in a marshland bog
the stuckmuck stalks a slight ell
sawn grass the songless
yellow ketch forage a sedge
bundle and satchel sort of
innermost error
the fool part a heart
strong winds careless a foothold
you there too merry
wee sail bell a coast
fond delay’d sun-bathers wade
shovellers hallboards
bevel edg’d chevals
dampen’d snipe sandpipers
peek in a kitchen
copper pot wooden
hook’d pans silver spun
windup dolls recoil
meal without sugar
glow worm the soil’d burlap sack
late windows laces
a spade lay on back
half print over a lintel
under a linden as
lean outward sorrow
far dells tomorrow sundown
the horse has run wild
