Politics for Poets

Thinking things through

Later it will be a flurry of effort, none of which will matter. But then a lot will be done.

I think I've blogged enough today.

Life goes on.

The Susquahanna River, Pennsylvania from
last fall.

When Poems Lack
 Found some
  old poems
 off in the vault
   of lost time.

  Thinking
       what was I writing all of that for?
  but that's the same as now.

  It comes, it flows,
    it rolls the stone
       in the pitch-pool.

   Rivers of polished stone.
      rough draft
  on the blog pages.
