L'aura del campo


'é a lua, é a lua, na quintana dos mortos'
♣ Federico García Lorca ♣


Higgins Street Bridge, April 25th  2009, Missoula, Montana


L'aura del campo. A breeze in the meadow. So it began the last day of Spring, 2005; on the 16th day of the month of Light of the year 162. This is a supplement to my daily journal written to a friend, my muse; notes I do not share. Here I will share what the breeze has whispered to me.

Small changes made 3.April. Nick doesn't like fish!

"Nick Neverhome (Dew Drop Inn Day 2)Open in new Window.

Nick Neverhome

          for Nicholas Le Tang

You squirm, gold-like in the sun,
quicksilver at night;
I order a fish taco,
offer you a bite; you snigger.

What now niggles at my neck
if not the carp and cavil
of our daily quibble
over why you aren't 'here'
and why I'm never 'all there'.

One glance and off you go,
'going to pot', a murky tale
of wheel-thrown-clay
and hand drawn scribbles,
glazed and ready to oven-bake.

Like lemon cilantro carp,
eyes-up on a gilded plate,
silver waiting on either side.

Small changes from what I first posted less than an hour before, kept here, just in case:

Nick Neverhome

         for Nicholas Le Tang

You squirm, gold like the sun,
silver like night; you bite
into your fish taco, smirk at me.

What now niggles at my neck
if not the carp and cavil
of our daily quibble
over why you aren't 'here'
and why I'm never 'there'.

One glance and off you go
'going to pot', a murky tale
of wheel-thrown-clay
and hand drawn scribbles,
glazed and ready to oven-bake.

Like lemon cilantro carp,
eyes-up on a golden plate,
silver waiting on either side.

Prompt: carp, the fish... or maybe the verb? And my friend Nick... who is never found at home.
