The fallen fig tree
calls to a gone fast year

of spirits walking with
sky scraping stilts

on a blue horizon

my granite bench floating
on a shore of suds
has been interrupted
by a yellow wind
a thick stump yielded to ivy
a quick yawn of cherry skies
over the fisherman's perch

a chimney stacked up
to a cloud's tongue
the graft of motel utopia
love made in a neon slice
while the microwave plays classical
and the waterline's blood of clay
chalk-marks the vein of day
phone rakes the groaning mechanical acres
a holographic pocket
calls to the fig tree's maker.
