Bring on the Night

Bring on the Night

Does the Condemned man
Floss His teeth
The night before
the gallows?


Who Else but a blind man
Wins a staring contest
with the sun?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bright Constellations
Now you see them, now you don't
Alpine headlamps.

(Evening views of the Middle Teton)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This world of dew
is only a world of dew
And yet...
