said The Waves read directly and with aging
said tiger
said globe, or the sequencing of phrases
said jug, jug, jug I sing like the nightingales,
though not too well
said commerce,
commerce reading Lucretius at lunch
said a circle cast on the waters,
a farm life with mud and children
said Pacific islands like a cluster of names
said Percival
said discourse
said etymology
said the quiet of ordinary things
said you, you, and you, nearby and dear
said tyger, tyger leaping
said too quickly
said but we hasten
said premonition has always been of dying in moving water
said look up, whales may be breaching
said rumors and gossip
(tales and flukes)
said Percival is dead!
said asymmetry
said a preference for mountains over the sea
said we love like a mountain
said at treeline
said Virginia, becomes the wolf, becomes the sea turtle
of our longevity
