birthday wish

I want my poems [life] to be

i heart huckabees
Croatia meets caribbean
meets motzart over
steel drums
rainer maria rilke
and leaves of grass
a giant rothko
broadside
bark thicker than blood
and each scale printed in like braille
or ancient stamps
bones and feathers
and bells
mason jars full of water
and fish bowls
hanging from the oak of myth
like kaleidoscope
shakers in bonnets
and Buddhas
sleeping in giant white barns
lanterns strung
empty night in the mountain
limes
and roots
as deep as god.
