The voids
Planned for
The impounded river
Were supposed
To fix
The flood
But who
Forgot
To spill
Advancing
Rain
And firm
The concept
Void

In getting
In getting
To the point
Where I two
Or split
By dreams
On the bridge
Across
A pause
The brook
Came to me
What is larger
Than this
Funnel
Sieved.

Thick as houses
Thick as houses
Dawns the night
Hard to see
Their frames
Process
From the one
To the next
I tack
My way
Head first
Into
The roomy
Day

This is sad
This is sad
Not since
Contained
Inhabited
In everything
A bowl
A shoe
A sheet
All bunched
They're strewn
Then cupped
Then thrown
What sticks
Will inside
Gain
The gut
Knifing
Through
This scenery

On Easter
On Easter
We thought
To witness
The Falls
Where the brass
Of Hamilton's dream
Stands bust
Over Paterson's
Mill bent
Foreclosure
On that same spot
Where cars
Of Salvadoran
Of Salvadoran
Refugee kids
Make babies
In desperate
Gushes
Old Burr smiles
His traitorous
Rictus grin
Eyes shut
Death- masked
On past
Republican dreams
Locked
In the County
Of Kings
Museum
This duel
Of cliffs
And clefts
Rewakens
And quickens
A tyrant sprIng
Doc Williams
Has written
The script
Before
Barreling
Over the Falls
The fool
We seeking
Nature
Left damp
From the mist
Will crumble
Like tourists
Of time
A verse

In tulips dyed
In tulips dyed
Developed there
A boy
On Easter
Jacketed
Who took
The shot
A ghost
Of chance
In formal wear
Reposing
No doubt
His suit
Was proof
Kept whole
The while
The day
Was new

The lattice
The lattice
Left
From parties
Gone
From houses
Sold
And neighbors
Lost
Will be repainted
Once
Again
To fix
A merry
Ending
Fast

Know weather
Know weather
Is a thing
To share
That care
For shelter
From the storm
Weighs mortgage
Airtight
On your head
Where snow and rain
In leaking
Fall

The with
The with
Has gone
From this
Old waste
Left
Directly
Directly
With a belt
Of bitters sweetly
To the tongue
With buds
Of promise
Breadthless
Clipped
Clipped

Walking stones
Walking stones
Pried
From around
The church
Spall just
As well
In a backyard
Profane
Many legs
Pace
Their home
Between
