Horse Springs Springs Springs

                         (April 10, 2003)

how often
     freshly freed
from tyranny's claw

the Kurds cheered
their liberators
the great the super power

and then betrayed then
betrayed again



No Apologies

                          (for being late to meeting of senior faculty)

how can I be sorry
biking along our river Genesee
thru Olmsted's park
poems assault me
shock and awe me
invincibly vernal erotic



Cassetta Divina

listening in the car
to one of the piano
quartets

i have no doubt
God created
this universe just so

Mozart could put
those notes
so right
