White China Plates II

Topics: classic

You could have driven         a pick-up truck         thru spokes of that moon, so big and radiant         this upended water chestnut -         ground mist weeping         in the shadows         flutter of an old woman's shawl,         the clammy smell like         a child's fingers to the face,         a little unsettling         crickets and dew in brigades         running tears on the old         shoe leather.
