planting everywhere in everyone

aeration begins between the teeth

of dream and our breath folding the thick batter

following umbilical strands into the sun

an old child hunab ku

simultaneousness

a story in a blanket on the sand

skin and pottery of song voices

work wavering waters

tones crisply muted to bond with sense

forms of backdrops against void's presence

richly plowed chaos somehow yields

the seed rich in-formation

planting everywhere

in everyone

swale canyon, washington 1997

one foot out the door

deer crow coyote snowmelt waterfalls

gentle swoop of electrical lines

over the valley

formed by the klickitat river

i be lichen them mosses too

pine fir oak one uninhabited barn

of potential, a porch overlooking

mountain adams,

so numerous the rich trails

silent fires above our head

***

here in portland at 4222 glisan

the empty beercans

pile into pyramids

music happens too,

liberty jones is sing singing

for a squeeze

uh

the tequila limelight

portland-klickitat 1995
