I saw i and the sky this morning

in a drop of dew on a rosebud

the savage spiders of the mind ceased

and in that tremble of reflection

there was everything and nothing

Every dog bull in a candle when all is axe

Since today’s yesterday’s tomorrow dogs dogs dogs

The price of bulls in China’s twice as much as hogs hogs hogs

Making candles without wicks isn’t worth the wax wax wax

Where what you said not when will grind the same old axe axe axe

The Field

The barley is gold and green,
with marginal notes
of seeds and whiskers.
The field is combed
and stamped with tractor tracks.
Against the fence, a scarecrow
stands sleeping.
