Look, a cloud like
the loveliest house ever
completely abandoned
Grains of sand
between her toes
happy as new stars
At the end of the meal
realizing I was using the wrong
end of the chopsticks
In the yard at night
inhaling the whole universe
I sneeze
Early summer night
everywhere insects roaring
with happiness
Rain
softening
the doghouse
Horse pissing -
clouds watching
in envy
Drunk
I piss in the backyard
under understanding stars
Every last
drop of life
pure mystery
My angel thinks I'm still a child
my dog sniffs
my nuts
