vertical grey cloud moving to the right above ridge

song sparrow calling from pine branch in foreground

event of distance between two points follows motion

different with respect to names appropriate calling

moon sits here in empty sky beside star glows there

behind from what appears to be swiftly moving water

grey plane of cloud next to black shoulder of ridge

diagonal white line of wave breaking across channel

9.29

first light coming into sky above still black ridge

wind moving through bamboo leaves across from fence

looking which points out falling away from position

surface shades to the left sometimes a line of blue

listener hearing voice reading turns around someone

standing there eyes closed picture going into ocean

pale red orange sky next to black shoulder of ridge

shadowed white line of wave breaking across channel

9.28

blue pink yellow of sky beside black plane of ridge

sparrows standing on edge of shadowed redwood fence

preceding the making even while suspend time’s flow

these determined by external present form and color

recalling paintings by Rousseau Vincent and Cézanne

followed by Rothko Still Kelly Matisse and Mondrian

blinding white edge of sun beside shoulder of ridge

line of 5 pelicans flapping toward mouth of channel

9.27

light coming into cloud in front of invisible ridge

motionless black pine branches across redwood fence

could instead be the fact which had served as model

noticeable measure of difference nature of language

example for one thing how last two lines transcribe

something seen when out there in water at eye level

grey rain cloud against invisible shoulder of ridge

diagonal white line of wave breaking across channel

light coming into fog against still invisible ridge

streaked sparrow walking across bricks beside fence

when young did not attempt later contrast to itself

one week goes by shows room which contains a window

woman recalling walking each day to school bus stop

followed by two goats called Mr. Johnson and Easter

grey whiteness of fog still against invisible ridge

line of pelicans gliding to the left toward channel

9.25

horizontal red orange cloud above still black ridge

curve of waning white moon across from black branch

different twice by the time it follows simultaneous

point on line as function of time note first second

words going forth toward revelation itself as it is

shapes can be written at same time as what they say

sunlit pink red cloud above black shoulder of ridge

line of pelicans gliding to the left toward channel

9.24

first light coming into sky above still black ridge

upturned curve of thin white moon above pine branch

then also place on the other hand concealed absence

calm about how from level to level various surfaces

pieces of glass embedded in man’s left index finger

the body laid out on the table having been violated

pale red orange sky next to black shoulder of ridge

shadowed white line of wave breaking across channel

9.23

light coming into fog against still invisible ridge

faint white curve of moon through fog beside branch

thought in part to open time set back to the moment

work basic subject matter examines form and content

strangely resonant since it all takes place present

always disappearing becomes past soon as it happens

grey whiteness of fog still against invisible ridge

white line of wave breaking on sand next to channel

9.22

grey whiteness of fog against still invisible ridge

sound of birds chirping from branches in foreground

done on the spot did not return the site of details

everything ever thought would still be first of all

man recalling a gout attack on Molokai doctor gives

Oxycodone makes everything just a little bit better

grey whiteness of fog still against invisible ridge

edge of white wave breaking on sand next to channel

9.21

dream in unmade yellow and blue bed opposite window

walking across chaos of rocks where sand used to be

color also “correct” system according to procedures

still seen in series begins resting in a small room

feeling one has when a person comes in walks around

the far side of the room between you and its window

bright circle of sun rising above shoulder of ridge

shadowed white wave breaking on sand next to channel
