via appia
i walk back
in time |
|
|
| |
deep inside you no more war
|
|
| |
|
lilac scent
all the secrets
we share
|
Carla Sari
| |
|
river stroll
he talks
about his life of crime |
| |
moon eclipse
I wax
my facial hair
|
|
beauty contest
the lissomness
of wild deer
|
|
|
Deborah P Kolodji
moon rock
behind the glass
summer divorce
|
|
|
| |
the whine
in your voice
mosquito fish |
|
| |
|
the wait
for low tide
starfish
|
Miriam Sagan
| |
|
pink lily smell—
a hunger
I can't fill |
| |
a small quarrel
Venus and Jupiter
conjunct the moon
|
|
facial tic—
snow coming in
off the plains
|
|
|
Graham Nunn
only silence in the shell
|
|
|
| |
at dawn
snake
shedding
autumn leaves |
|
| |
|
almost a poem spring rain |
Diane Wakoski
| |
|
A hummingbird, red
throat poised over the roses:
the dream I forgot |
| |
How different we
are, despite our love for truth:
Fiddlehead and Bibb
|
|
If only music
had filled the cathedral. Not
sandals, whispering.
|
|
|
Charles Trumbull
lying abed
awakened by
worm-getters |
|
|
| |
a pile
of adobe bricks
she won’t change her mind |
|
| |
|
how can I believe
the words of the woman
in the heishi necklace? |
Robert Hecht
| |
|
clearing fog
hills and sky
redraw each other |
| |
opened peach
my heart feeling
its dark center |
|
garden store
Buddhas sit
according to price
|
|
|
A. Thiagarajan
up the hill-
a girl pulls me
and my headload
|
|
|
| |
autumn evening
at every episode he asks
who is the hero, who is the villain |
|
| |
|
sleepless-
she sees a number
in her palm
|
Bruce Ross
|
|
an old wall
just an old concrete wall
summer haze |
| |
time and again
the spider misled
summer rain . . .
|
|
short sea ferry
the young girl's hair
up to the clouds
|
|
|
Laryalee Fraser
sway
of the harvest moon
the barn door open
|
|
|
| |
northern lights...
the distance between
words
|
|
| |
|
suitcase packed —
the weathervane
points north
|
Francis Masat
| |
|
noon –
a boy steps in and out
of his father's shadow
|
| |
humid night
across a field — soft sounds
of people
|
|
October moon –
ghosts and trick-or-treats
disappear
|
|
|
Ian Daw
first incision -
a sparrow vanishes
in the sun
|
|
|
| |
bells fading in the wind drifting seeds
|
|
| |
|
winter dusk -
the wood grain fades
to wood
|
Helen Buckingham
| |
|
foxes
fight over
the last of my dream |
| |
old school
the coldness
of the triangle |
|
| Indian summer
another half-cup
left in the flask |
|
|
john martone
lichen
book
won’t
tell me
who
you are
|
|
|
| |
a fallen sycamore’s
getting
up again |
|
