haibun || Sheila E. Murphy

Saffron's kind of else for now. When I repaired to Flagstaff,
sleet in tiny knives pierced dot points on the windshield
faster than the glass replacement salesman at each
car wash could descend upon a hundred drivers who have
no intention of reseaming glass. One slips into gear
and pretty soon people begin to talk. Inference, with sugary
surface, practices itself. As solos break out into northern
ventures up I-17. Avoiding Friday afternoons and other
placekicks in the psyche favoring young Mondays. Primping
along defined roadways as if jaundiced wings had grown
too close to sunlight. Logic entertains in passive fashion,
coming out in question form, unrecognized, undrawn to, and
still spun into a faultline that some citizens agree upon. Those
stalwart gentle creatures who ruminate more than they work.
Some overtones release their fractions into would-be
continuity. The pine trees at this time of year seem congruent
with bassoon tunes on FM radio, factory installed in the vehicle
on which I have a warranty for thirty thousand miles.
 
Remnants of eternity, a splashback, interference someone runs
as if part of the script
 
Sheila E. Murphy

poem || Peter Sherburn-Zimmer

Poetry Is Making and Seeing

'cold air
on the sill
close the wind-
ow portal of the day'

the poem has the pedigree of a mélange
or a stray dog sniffing
turned over trash cans
for illumination

our European knowledge of china has come via latin and french and at any
rate the french vowels as printed have some sort of uniform connotation

what is needed in San Francisco?
ask in the bay and in the tenderloin
a little curtsy on the sidewalks
of the financial district would also help
and a schedule of farmers’ markets throughout

while putting the books away
and letting the words speak: arigato
said to the bank teller and
to the broad smile of the guard

we heard the chorus
of beautiful voices
from intelligent women at the gallery
and were thrilled at our entrance
into paradise

all in the service
of ‘making’ an aesthetic life
in lieu of the ethical
or the life of action…
an either/or for another millennium

my friend complains
about eternity
but then writes poetry
and offers tea
instead of a deck of cards

copyright 1955
and still in print
making the circle into a circus
in a salient solitude of delight
and rage and looking forward to…what?

that tight muscle
in the bottom of my back
makes me want
in the middle of plenitude

the glare of afternoon
below the shadows sings
reminds the lazy mind
of skies without birds
nests without pollen
regrets without the pine and the oak:
a land lost to stillness
and a city not quit sure
it will not turn mad
with the next electrical blackout
leaving automobiles stranded at street corners
fire trucks hoping for a flame
traffic turning and turning
and relief only with the end of the day

or steal silk
for the bath
and let my conscience
boil over
with ease

I listen for
water in the afternoon
and am satisfied
bitter tea

Creeley made the occasion
forward
a cliff before
traffic
rushed beyond
what yes-
terday could imagine

someday
to sing you
love songs
in your own Esperanto

I heard an unfamiliar voice
say unfamiliar things
about Egyptians and gods
I did not know
and felt comfort somehow
that I too could enter
the world of the unknown
without tearing my pants

the naturalist
takes delight
in each turn of
detail
to what can be found
here
now

where weeds grow
trees stand aside
slightly

even lost scissors
come back
when I am looking
for a poem
it does not always
end
on its own

poems || Jim Leftwich

theme

beans never snap-on tools ladder-dung
is a gum-magus coleslaw gallant and
aglow
the law of the katydid is militant
snag gusto
stun rusts in Pakistan

05.16.2011




variation

stinks the same actual katydid
the stink-bug unwinds
dangerous positivist traps and tropes
since when does the able-bodied sinus
sinuous and sing bidding islands
angular angels bulbous bamboo and
buttoned wrong

05.16.2011




theme


inherent naysaying tongue annotates
angelic maladies mad dais lasts loss
alas in the shade of the sinus-mandala

what do you mean today is a gritty night

since what anyway today is is a player
piano sinus but that was saturday

part topical pose
part gnosis and part nose


05.16.2011




variation


backsliding into Kansas is no fun
no matter what the players say

one big slab of hidden maya

not saying that a slab of hidden

since when the night clangs knots

maybe there is no daffodil today


05.16.2011




theme

banana gamelan
mandible argyle angina
Gaia
goop
at danger
at graying gong
dial-up dahlia
silver hasten the sarong
Madagascar unmasked at last
the highlights of hindsight
pangs of spit

05.16.2011




variation

mulls lasting same
from the hinterlands we
sail into the shinto winter
all along the misaligned mandrake
by dint of tape and loss
at night in the sneaker-flit net
a shirt-fang coiling rung
same magick same game
same gasping mudra

05.16.2011




theme

sack of mash-salad lukewarm
we are younger than myself
but not by much
we could have been a salmon
or a sea-faring angel
if it is not too much to say
yes and paste
pass the black-eyed peas
is there any other way

05.16.2011





variation

snorkel at last the salutations
cut and dangle
cull mangle halibut cuticles
mismanaged by sea-faring
angels
we can almost hear them say
the past stops here

05.16.2011




theme

napping at the ankles
the detuned toolshed
the maladjusted ladder

05.16.2011




variation

anger detuned is play
maya in a kayak

haibun || Sheila E. Murphy

Aptitude's convivial spot-check happens in the form of chordal backdrop
to the lively fiddle moving west. I hear her brother has the same kind of
neglectful voice. The curfew we are in the habit of obeying could be
nicknamed winter. The wine we use to baptise young adults remains
a blend of one known with one less so. The reach, the arch, parched
stacking of the deck remain semantic. For days at a time they argue
about nothing. Nothing anyone remembers later on. Thus, they are 
left with a vague sense of dread. Talk opposes sanctuary of
the polished solitude each seeks. One's best behavior forms this stasis.
In the moments between gathering and placing crops within proximity
of preparation. Daylight has been made for making via routine magic.
Tell me something, says the one in charge. Explain to me how principle
can be distinguished from a chore.
 
Norms replenishing a brokenness, habitual as catastrophe, once
you get the hang of it
 
Sheila E. Murphy

i rol up

i rol up i rol up
my face feels like my face
but i dont know it well
the days are so usefeel
like my pets in my mind
i would like to know you
i rol up i rol up
people are different then
and when we have the same
shapes i eat anything lately
now lets watch this bird swoop
for a while and ignore the cop
i rol up i rol up
are you bored then go drunk ten
years across china and don't
join the army find something
else like make up t v shows
i rol up i rol up
i wish you would call
my cell phone now but then
again sometimes i need to
be alone with the wind
i rol up i rol up


SUMASANONE

not telling no one would think about
my don't not when say yes
don't want they known
so much saigon
need two thimbles to clean
or symbols impeded

or my my own cairo
a song is not thinking, from
seeing running by them
and took them badly I on and on

mom will they when stole
not any guess not think about
say on they on when it's laying out
superb mine gone and took them

so much sights gone but side on
not pay jelly not elect why they know
and more ain't get on what I walk
and when money told hunger send the feet
then I like some why stay then

poem || Raymond Farr

Stillness Workings
I.
This foot at exiled.
Fascinated.

False postponed errata.

Annihilated radio ideal.
Whose mangrove.
 
Waves, on closed sign.
Beaches, a facet.

Continuously a third voice, contained.

All particulars.

On the current.
Way down, the hall.

Broken, mistyping.

The halibut kissing.
Eroticism.

Of maypole.
 
Maybe this time I’ll…

Register wet.
In valid stone, reverberation church.

A clear stoppage.
Or stuff Ovid’s into.

A pen name, I too much.
Took place, all surf.

Marginal, in advance. 

& the lost, so removed.

II
Alkaline dive kisses.
Misfortunate alternative. 

L’il stochaic.
Drive by, divided by.

Atoms got nerve. 

Impulsive to impulsive to a pillow.

I nut like a.

Nothing so.
Smack, smack. 

The vibrating is too.
Absence scowling.

What creak, a bone.

Twelve spines twelve. 
& a half sizes. 
What shelf, uncollected reasoning.

Point of departing. 

Fracture reminds.

Isotopes Sheila.
Redone.

That the sound, the handle.
Require a touch.

Faster than.
