New Art

The Big Lake-

all night turning white rows under,
fry tilled back to black water.

Old men neck deep
in rubber pants &
red plaid shirts, waiting
for morning harvest.
Missing the opening
would be treason
say the old-timers,
worse if you
are an Islander.

Tonight they wait,
ancient gills damaged
by years of Marlboros
& Bushmills at the Onekema Bar
with coldblooded girls
from the ballparks
cruising low on stools
dreaming about the spawning
& the harvest & how everything
dies a little
on the way home.

9410 GRANGE AVE

Hail hammers shingles,
pounds spikes of ice
clean through the pink
clouds between the studs,
straight down to our pillows.
But, ice doesn’t stand a chance
in our fiery bed. Our sheets
are in flames. And just because I glide
so easily into the ember
between your thighs
doesn’t mean we’ll soon smelt
into one heart.

Let’s be crystal clear.
I am a nuclear winter storm.
I will not melt. You are a tiny crocus brawling
through a frozen crust.
You have the rust and stains
to prove it. But spread your
petal smile wide for the crawling window
of my eastern sun. There is a spring
behind the squall. A warm fire waiting.
