from my newest collection of poetry

simple things fairytale: other Anguillian excursions and hypothesis

Bliss Villa like a Key West postcard:
a tourmaline jewel
the wide plantation porches
where the young women
sit Nair-ing each other
the cream cat with the smoky blue eyes
peeps around the corner amused by the chatter
and the assortment of bare breasts
the high arched brow odor of dilipilitories
and salt

the ocean breathes again
this time





in dark blue
