dark romance
a taste of poetry
on
a bookworm's lips

evening
unleavened bread
dipped
in wine

another possession
lost and found
yesterday
Robert Witmer
daylight fades . . .
a child's smile
lost
in thought
Robert Witmer
waves darken
beneath the wind
the
harmony of whales
Robert Witmer
angels arriving
on tiny parachutes
milkweed

a stone bench
warm with sun
the
cat my mother loved

self help
the clerk at the bookstore
points
to the bottom shelf

lost in thought
a dandelion seed
in
the wind

the silence
of
forgetful flags

Robert Witmer
a child
shoehorned into a dream
the
long walk home

a name
in a forgotten book
somewhere
in the middle

Robert Witmer
an old wagon
heavy with hay
remembering
the rain
Robert Witmer
sunrise
bursts into the room
the
brass buddha winks
Robert Witmer
sundown
in a barren field
the
scarecrow nods
Robert Witmer
shadows
under the stairs
milk
for a one-eyed cat
Robert Witmer
a grand piano
hanging from a window
our
last goodbye

spring wind
a bamboo hubbub
rubs
against the sky
Robert Witmer
a small boat
asleep in the waves
the
fisherman tracing stars
Robert Witmer
chiseled
from marble
the hand of a slave
Robert
Witmer
behind her eyes
so many rooms
a
breeze through rose curtains

black holes
in
a rippled universe

tricycle tracks
all the branches
of
the human tree

an old parking ticket

eyes
in all directions
the
lost potato

hunger
a stone ripens
in
a tight fist
