Thaw
To heavy to be thrown
the snowball marks
the foot of the hill
though the thin snow on the field has gone
and so the looping tracks
it persists
somewhere beyond
the roll of the game
from which the children
could not keep their mittened hands
one instant
Monism
there's nothing to do
night falls
but night doesn't fall
we in this force
must acknowledge through skylights
the moon
we sip
we nibble
under the mossy skylights
they are just skylights
so far from being actual or possible
causes of the tides themselves
and yet
it's through the skylights
we see the moon move
the mossy moon move
Mandelbrot's Trim
When the girl whose job it is to sweep the salon floor
passes behind him, and in doing so happens to be caught
for a moment between two mirrors, one in which he sees himself,
Benoit reeflects on how her elegant push of the broom
echoes besinde him, leading his eye, in time,
to a point as sharp and complex as a woman's voice
calling from a payphone to say never.
Benoit Mandelbot was the father of fractal geometry
Owl Dialectic
Argue what you will
with the tail of an owl
insofar as it contributes
to silent flight
as the same time
as poise for a view
of a vole in grass at dusk,
it planes the air to a fulcrum.
