Cool Breeze Continuum

 

you are the only one 

not flowers, not a ford mustang

 

diamond paper cowboy

you are the only one 

 

who calls me to talk about the passage

how it moves fast

 

space travel—rockets

or to tell me everything 

 

almost wasn’t all right

but now it is

 

you discover new 

island boundaries 

 

looking at 19th  century  

New York Harbor maps 

 

street poppies oh 

I love them...thank you!

 

funny today I was 

taking photos— huge blossoms 

against silver scaffolds 

blooms and concrete...

sometimes words can’t carry 

alphabets don’t mean anything 

 

so I just grunt/ laugh/ smile

hiccup/ cackle/ caw

 

& hope 

you 

catch 

my 

warm

drift
