from The Wishin' Jupiter Poems: Chance Upon
Chance upon
the river.
Chance upon
the dead cow
the coyotes
have opened.
Chance upon
the moment
when truth
kind of stinks.
OLD POET SELF-EXAMINATION
Even after
a lifetime
he doesn't
understand
what it is
he is. And
how can he?
He's always
last to know.

from The Wishin' Jupiter Poems: Somewhere Coyote
Somewhere Coyote,
old Crow's brother,
thinks this place is his.
I ask, May I share?

NOVEMBER WIND WITH GEESE
Dark geese fly
against a dark
sky, the evening
darkening. Hard
wind pushes them
back, holds them
motionless.
Not the end
of the world,
yet they stay
as if it were.

from The Wishin' Jupiter Poems: I Can Show You
The rim of soft hills,
the river. We have sky
with clouds. We have
cottonwoods talking.
Otherwise the silence.
If you cannot find God
here, I can show you
where the thistles are.

from The Wishin' Jupiter Poems: All I Know
All I know
is nothing
when it comes
to speaking
with the red-
tail. Kii, he
says. Kii, ii.
The sky knows
what he means,
yet here I stand,
lost for words.

from The Wishin' Jupiter Poems: Things Are
Things are what
they seem and
a deer trail
shows me the
way out and
back. You can't
ask for more.
Yet you can
still get lost
if you want.

from The Wishin' Jupiter Poems: Snow Begins
Snow begins to
cover the world.
We are not
ready yet.
Not that what
we might want
will ever make
a difference.
