poem in process no.112


Five Rivers, Trinidad Aug 07


Untitled


Jack Spaniard nest
wrap up under galvanise
cross cut teak/appropriate
- a horner man beeps – fish man – scale hand - fish van
an plastic flowers an the pink thick drapes
the dog
panting on the roof
daylong
day come
an all these hills
all these hills an holy mountainsides
green an purple
ablaze
wit the gospel radio that on all day
an alright –
all these things like umbilical vine.


my sister
my sister with the sling of love
my sister
my sister
with the muddy gust of tears
our mother
who art in heaven…
with the acolytes and the wooden crosses
crossin hell yard in the stingin
stingin rain
