~Week 38: The Ae Freislighe~
A Cutting
To find the life underneath
Sometimes it takes a cutting
A folding back of the sheath
To see the green life budding

~Week 37: The Tricube~
the world is still alive
the world is
still alive
the spring song
chee-dee-dee
of the young
chickadee
the tulip’s
blades like green
flames rising

Week 36: The Pantoum
Coronavirus Blues
I woke up this mornin’
And I turned on the news.
Newsman called out a warnin’.
Now I’ve got the coronavirus blues.
Yeah, I turned on the news
And what they said was nothin’ good.
Now I see the coronavirus blues
All around my neighborhood.
What they say is nothin’ good,
Except for those who lie.
All around my neighborhood
We don’t trust that lyin’ guy.
Yeah, we say to those who lie,
“Your judgment’s comin’ quick.
We don’t trust that lyin’ guy
He’s enough to make you sick.”
Their judgment’s comin’ quick,
Those liars on the news.
It’s enough to make you sick.
I’ve got the coronavirus blues.

you can’t learn to breathe this strange
unnatural air
