Snow Country
desolate the reach
of space a
curved line of
white empty as
the loneliness one
feels the tone
is different on
a day like
this she says
unaware that her
words fall like
snow in the
mountains soft quiet
in the roar
no one hears

Another piece from the eighties…this first appeared here in November 2015.
This is a cool little glimpse into your influences back in the day…

Prentiss Moore led me to Creeley, Olson, Oppen, and later, to Ponge, Celan and others. I owe him much.
