out of control........................The stars above
in the clearing...........................(so beautiful thru the skylight in the loft
across the river ......................warmed by upward drifting currents
on the daybed beside the window ........from the black woodstove in the corner below
a circle of light......................as I lay under the down comforter
fresh cream, chopped parsley from the garden ......Gunter brushing his teeth in the bathroom.
the sound of water........He would be climbing up the ladder soon)
a flowered dress..............were a bright cold yellow
a glass of beer.................in the black midnight sky.
brown glass on the hills.....................
evening sunlit leaves........ the smell of green grass......... warm sun......................... a red front door................ cold cereal........................ working............................ a pale imitation................. a white shirt....................... making love...................... the children laughing.......... blue jeans......................... potato soup...................... the unbidden flood............... because I have never been there........................ footprints.......................... unwashed windows........... a dark corner.................... the pine trees overhead...... walking............................. riding................................ the horizon........................
