It was a coat the color of candy
I didn’t like,
Boston Baked Beans.
The man, he couldn’t help
I didn’t like
those beans.
Houseboats
Thy wind, thy tree —
Thy quaking tree —
Thy bells of consecration
Tree at the drawbridge
Holland is the New England of Europe
Home to the now dead
fisher of cod,
the ominous whale,
Calvin
trees, universities
hemp
and a spiry regret
Tea time
Our life together, at lakeside
What are gutted complexities
compared to you and me?
Rowing
Nightfall: acceptance
What eludes her other means
she gets by patience
