if flutes played your thoughts
what melodious prosody -
jazz or discord?
ZG
priapic pan-pipes 'pon cloven hooves
the old forest gods springing
to the early pulses on wild and scenic
steelhead bearing pulses
bring dry-footed fishermen
to flail local waters frothy
this morning's first dawn song
faint tentative robin burbles
followed by insistent goose chatter
