Eschewing the pills  
Sleep-deprivation ensues  
However inviting the bed

I found a wig in the road  
Picked it up and shook it out—  
It sits atop a mailbox now.

To ride 'neath the jaundice  
Of a morning sky, and    
hog the highway with song.

What kind of peace  
Would quell the heart  
Of its trepidations

She was a street thing with    
no home, no name,  
   
'Cept when they called out    
for "Cocaine!"  
   
Snorting all the snow of    
the town beneath,  
   
To trash more than    
her sinus and her teeth.  
_______  
   
Let clarion call of trumpet  
Send on the wind    
With unbridled speed

"Nature uses as little as possible  
Of anything."

Almost like a poem, and his works,  
Like a library of books filled    
With more of such poetry, revealing

An old man in his Winter, in a    
Union with a younger Summer,    
Spending his retirement leaning    
Back in a chair at the dining room    
Table, reading obituaries.    
   
Till the call comes from down the hall    
Demanding his services as it    
Pleases her, and so the old man in    
His Winter slowly rises in his    
Robe and slippers, mutters and  
Shuffles out the door to flag a cab!
