I woke up this morning feeling

I have banked the fires

pretending the tablecloth... (Read full poem)

I have a pack of letters,
I have a pack of memories.

Perhaps down the... (Read full poem)

The woman is bathing her... (Read full poem)

Walk the dog around--
It was too... (Read full poem)

Who had so little time
To pack her trunk and order

What exigencies were --
But nature will be ready
And have an hour to spare.

How jokes are gone and empty is my mouth.
Long, green-eyed scavengers shall pick my eyes,
Purple fish play... (Read full poem)

In the dark of the world like whipped... (Read full poem)

The hump of Elba... (Read full poem)

Argue about the freedom of the will.

We murmur and fret and frown,
And, our length from the... (Read full poem)
