Waterfall Willson Dam

Willson Dam Poem

 Carbide transforms for acetylene lamps 

 Magic calcium and nitrogen gas 

makes a cheap nitrogenous solid 

cheap to grind into farm fertilizer.

Far from  the odor of fertilizer

All finances from the fortune of lamps

He builds a compound and dam so solid 

Pumping Lac Meech uphill as if was gas.

Call him crazy Elon Musk so solid

what remains of the plant is merely gas

wells flow as light grows a fertilizer

Carbide Willson's passion still ignites lamps.

Campfires and Outdoor Bath

Outdoor Bath

Soak trouble curls of steam

Dad gone twenty five years

Ghost brings morning tears

Chemical free in the stream

Love

Romantic love is fluid 

like clouds

like sand

it takes work

it needs time

 

Blue Jay

Blue Jay

Found an injured scrub jay in November.

Aphelocoma Californica, in fact.

Because we have facts in print, remember.

Fear she would die before I found a Vet.

No animal control officer help.

Watched Youtube videos on how to set 

the blue jay's wing flapping like torn sea kelp.

Fed her drops of treats to regain her life.

Last weekend my son came home from college. 

Blossom, that is her name, is ready strong.

Opened her pen near the Okame trees.

She didn't fly, cocked her head, which felt wrong

Then a buzzing diddy came from the bees,

they are working and practicing their song.

Velvet cone flowers lift while she sails on.

What to do she has her boyfriend back for treats?
