Dandelion (1993)

 I tell you daily I am a dandelion 

As I leaf thru photos

Of our Mexican excursion, tabouli 

In a sack is how we do it on the road 

All poems gone to seed 

Tall above grandma's uncut grass 

I gather an unpublished bouquet of  sights &

Blow the starfilled afro across an iota of iowa 

Can you imagine a kiowa weeding 

Medicinal root treasure, wind prescribing we nap a bit 

As bulgar softens in civilization icebox 

Bleak grandeur of gone monte alban 

At heyday more populous than cesspools we waddled 

Daily digressing preferably from scumdinavia to savannah via wildlife channel, 

Dehorned rhinos roam less lusted over by poachers "sporting" game 

Dispossessed tribes lay bodily claim 

To farmlands sold to whites who take hanni out like a dangerous flower
