once i was a sockful of a forty-niner's
blood swept from the mountain's vein.

my chapped hands gave you all they could hold.
the day's greediness shone through the weave of my delight
as if i could be renewed by only seeing you.

this was all the work ever meant to me.
no gold could ever glimmer as brightly as your smile.

stones
nothing but
stones,
weeds
cover my grave;
 
light
carries the
goodness.
 
do not save my
ashes.

Pavlov's Dogs
 
 
come on, come on -
 
               the captain shouted
 
to the wind
to the waves
to the rocks
maybe also to the furies
 
               who insisted on smashing the keel
 
i guess he missed the class
about Pavlov and his dogs
 
he rang a bell for fate
and fate came on with a rush
hungry
hungry
 
               the salvage divers said
               that he was tangled
               in the ropes around the mizzenmast
               with seaweed strewn through his hair
               and that
               he was still shouting
               or smiling -
               they couldn't tell which.
