After Apple-Picking: The First Time I Saw a Hooker
http://after-apple-picking.blogspot.com/2010/11/first-time-i-saw-hooker.html
Monday, November 15, 2010. The First Time I Saw a Hooker. She was not what you would call pretty—. Spinning, dangling,. Showing off her cherry-. Apple clutch and matching lips. Feet pointed to every flaw and revealed. Each crease in the over-tread sidewalk. Even young boys would stop to gawk. Couldn’t help but look and told me her. Body was for sale, and images. Of Frankenstein buying limbs for his. Monster defined whoredom for me for years. She stood beneath the railroad tracks. Of a passing train,.

Tuesday, November 30, 2010. To Fulke Greville, In Absentia (With apologies to Geoffrey Hill). That love, genesis of the mind, suffers. Faults is its triumph. Consolation. Could he try. The waste is, perhaps, Sion — chosen. Once upon a time (where all. Stories begin) to lie. In shadows. I know. It’s debatable. I. You saw it the same. As I; our vision is the same. And suffers the same myopia:. Degenerate miasma —. The empty tomb forgotten. To us even sin finds doom —. Everything ends in such. What. And tru...

After Apple-Picking: Concerning First Snow and the Wedding Feast
http://after-apple-picking.blogspot.com/2011/01/concerning-first-snow-and-wedding-feast.html
Wednesday, January 12, 2011. Concerning First Snow and the Wedding Feast. For his first miracle he turned water to wine. At the wedding,. My friend mulled wine—. Riesling is exactly right for a few things. Winter when it comes: green is a dream. Or a perpetual reality. What did we expect? Weathermen know the reason for the darkening sky. Surely their mind is cold,. Colder than the sycamore:. Da stieg ein Baum. O reine Übersteigung! Winter flora and the dying god—. Faces frozen in tears of forgotten Zion.

Tuesday, August 31, 2010. 8220;The only thing we do not find [in dreams] is what can to some extent reconcile an educated man to life—scientific and artistic enjoyment.”. Eduard von Hartmann (quoted in Freud’s. 8220;He’s dreaming of his lost love;. A goat with no horns, hooves, and hide.”. Abayomi Animaschaun, “ Anecdote of a Goat. Just the other day I heard tell. Of an earless goat. Just two holes in his head. You could see straight through to the other side. Cost five bucks but I had to. Reconciles man...

After Apple-Picking: Wrens
http://after-apple-picking.blogspot.com/2010/10/wrens.html
Tuesday, October 19, 2010. The open door invited a last look. Into the limits of the land of lost horizons,. Relegated to rear patios guarded by a thin. Screen door blown for a moment to the crook. Of walled corners, open to the idea that brooks. No defense for intrusion. Flight of passion. Drove you two to the cloister within. Spider-soaked mesh windows you shook. Free of their hay dust and feverish insights. From vast expanse you fled for the place of promise. An asthmatic quick gasp that dims bright.

After Apple-Picking: Husbandry on Neck Creek (Revision)
http://after-apple-picking.blogspot.com/2010/10/husbandry-on-neck-creek-revision.html
Saturday, October 9, 2010. Husbandry on Neck Creek (Revision). Dies beside my car. In clay iced over. In winter the creek is. No place for old pets. In terrifying thorny cases,. Thistle grows with purple. Spring blooms in great patches. No sweat or toil brings to bear. The sight of ivy and sumac. Recalls the itch on my arms. Ancient hedera pollutes water:. Animals no longer drink. Or embrace with impunity. Young boys lust for fire,. A pile of gasoline and a bic. To take care of it all. To yield, the labor.

After Apple-Picking: Eclipse
http://after-apple-picking.blogspot.com/2010/11/eclipse.html
Tuesday, November 9, 2010. The sun sets behind the earth. As the mind’s soiled smock of day’s end. Tosses heavenward: it spreads like a finger-painted gull. And floats on body-heat thermals. Remaining in the air only so long. Before descending as recollection must. Eyes linger. On the outline of form shifting as memory takes hold—now black,. Now white, the nameless glow of sunspots. In the eyes: all colors of the eclipse. Are of greatest moment. Mimesis: the shape. The arms spread in the wing-span. Neal,...
