For a few minutes we argue
until the sparrows
of laughter
occupy the corner again

The rain I feel today
is the celebrant of yesterday
resting from the dance

Laughing at nothing
you know the sun
is sprinkling
nuggets of light
into empty pockets

Sliding down
the end of day
letting the ocean cover
the last imprint of words
on your mind

Sound-barrier lane
nowhere to go
but a step deeper
into silence

Horse with hairy hoofs
morning echoing the beat
street asleep, not me!

Having flown away
through the bars of man’s perceptions
I am free today.

Downtown music now
I see spring in every face
winter groans and melts

A roar from his mouth
cane strikes out at everyone
sunny day in March

Sunlight for its eyes
the squirrel skips above me
my boots melt the snow
