early pomes, 1960s - prism & crystal

Prism

bespoke patterns go
trying to fin concepts afloat
a cliche for today
say some sounds aloud
mind the rise & fall for noises
makes statements by convention

spin
turn salt to stone
or spiders to gossamer
with a bead of sunshine
take the taste clusters from running feet
& see peace in the sway of things

1961

this thing I know is now
& as I note
is past
like sleet on glass

fly swiftly sweet crystal…
