Lexomancy:  A Nursery Story


The spider in the greenhouse

downspout, its life an endless 

loop, relying on randomly open 

pages in some obscure book 

to create a subtext 

that is easily misconstrued 

for truth.

Baroque Painting


Japanese maples 

underplanted beneath 

old-growth cedars

and one dying hemlock.

Nothing is moving. 


And then I see you

harvesting winter 

squash in our garden 

and the landscape

comes alive.
