Mother I know

You are not

My earth

This I am of

My own accord

As you were

Before the ground

Overtook your figure

As you always

Will be for me

The ground

Overtaken

Wending

The river was

Needy then

There it was

A spring in flood

All the cottonwoods

Streaming

Tom McGlynn

Join an immense

Curiosity-filled

Culture of scholars

And makers

To conduct real

Cross-disciplinary

Ideal and material

Work together

Which was

A real double
Whammy

I can say I knew

Her when

Internet plus digital

Felt like it looked

Like a sky flower

Appolonian

With eye teeths

Warmingly

When I saw

The word “trace”

Rise up

Constructing anew

Body and jurisdiction

It changes it’s

Tone of voice

Or tells me there

Are mistakes

Too correct

To the animal suffering
It is not entertainment

Tom McGlynn

Defy the signs

Of aging with beautiful

Dignity in sight

In too the landscape

Which will always work

To make you proud

Your figure

Grounded

A hole nother

Necessary level

Of reading

Creates

A potent immediate

Transparent

We seek two

Publish!

Tom McGlynn

Help us provide

These works

For the first

Time

While rejecting

The modern

World as

A privilege fantasy

Who lets the incidental?

A vacant lot

Yearning

To breed fee

Here I sit

Broke, imparted

Squatting there

Go the neighborhood

Tom McGlynn

The perfect warm up

For stiff- sore

People breathing

Wheezy done-in

Moment

You brought eligible

For sleaze and flea circus

Just a way of clearing

The most dinosaur

Of calls from

Limb to limn

My head laid

In leaves

In timing’s self

Bluejays steal

The summer

Winding

Some what unsettling

Any new tool

Of delirium and

Resistance looks

Wonderful as

I stood on this

Corner

In an extract

More fruitful

Unexpected in

My counter part

Here my echo

This tune that

Done twine me

Pulled antique

From box of

Childish, gently

Ringing waves

The next big movement

Slow art

And sex

We can use

Possessed of

Dreamless sleep

And waking aimless

A thirsty slipper

This is what I do

When I don’t

Now what to do

Tom McGlynn

An unnamed condition

Yet everyone is saying

“No one knows you

Better than me”

The many faces

Contrive to limit

The dilemmas they

So brilliantly explore

Have a fabulous weekend

The trouble with pleasure

Finally kicking in

I’d like to extend

To the 19^th century

What I haven’t found

Here working in

A mutual revelation

Our pages

Unspooling

Of every complex

The facts dribble

Out merely

Having been

Present injury

A congress of quandary

Votes each resolution

A convenient eclipse

This terrible article

And that

All cart

And no horse

Tom McGlynn

No sad poems

Here got stood

Up awaiting

Evacuation

Compared with

My memory
What size are they

This cheer you

Offer as you

Yourself pinned

Hope up on a

Bays of stars

What can’t be

Seen or heard

Breaks, breaks

Upon my rock

Bound coastal
