Small Song
The reeds give way to the wind / and give the wind away.
So I Said I Am Ezra
So I said I am Ezra / and the wind whipped my throat / gaming for the sounds of my voice
Still
I said I will find what is lowly / and put the roots of my identity / down there:
The City Limits
When you consider the radiance, that it does not withhold / itself but pours its abundance without selection into every / nook and cranny not overhung or hidden; when you consider
The Confirmers
The saints are gathering at the real / places, trying tough skin on sharp / conscience,
Viable
Motion's the dead giveaway, / eye catcher, the revealing risk: / the caterpillar sulls on the hot macadam
Weathering
A day without rain is like / a day without sunshine
When I Was Young The Silk
When I was young the silk / of my mind / hard as a peony head
Above the Fray Is Only Thin Air
