<strong>New</strong> <strong>Songs</strong> (<strong>for</strong> <strong>Kassandra</strong>)<br />
(Continued)<br />
Footballer<br />
Not that crushed blood mountain night,<br />
last, little memory, nothing to the high<br />
moon’s walk in the swamp, its neon cowboy<br />
we saved, several worlds we blew up in song.<br />

Wine & Women<br />
Sweetness, I hope you’re balling someone<br />
or something good tonight. I hope you<br />
supped with golden gladness, danced<br />
with the free fury of an oft-dead soul, & on<br />
the dawn swim where happiness mirrors the sky<br />
******<br />
Braided Rings<br />
Her book told it sad & too long I listened,<br />
molten slave on late night trains over high bridges,<br />
why was this so? Music’s sex & teeth remain!<br />
<strong>The</strong>y call it our wedding. Wings explode from<br />
a crossed heart, the rude meat of those<br />
gnarled hours gives over to hearts arriving ferocity.<br />
