Poems from June 2025

A few poems I wrote in late June 2025 while traveling in Italy and Japan.

Piccola formica
Marzia possente
Impazzito con Cola
~
Little ant
Mighty march
Maddened by Cola

Singing clear
Dancing flight
Favorite colors
Blue as night
Blackest depth
Brightest sky
A branch swaying with the wind

Spiraling wheels
Falling off
Put back on
Falling off
Put back on
Falling off
Put back on
Falling off
Put back on
Falling off
Put back on
Falling off
Put back on
Clorox or Gorilla Glue

Black stone sharp
Grey stone steel
White salt sharp
Black soy sharp
Simmering copper brown

Sweet potato
Purple flesh
Copper skin
Burning tongue

A vase edge
Overshadowed
By great green leaves
