mossy
licheny
mesmerizing
small world of
melting glaciers
rivulets refreezing
snowfall anew
growth
cascading
essential intracacies
upon a crumbling stone
deconstructing
now
quahog
chowder
little neck
cherrystone
on the half shell
Ben Franklin
at the Union Oyster House
short rake and bull
tongs
beneath a rippling surface
primitive life in the mud
filtering the seas for sustenance
ebb and flow
a moment of the sun and moon
neap and spring
wampumpeag
power and status
currency of the fur trade
two quarts fried
my lunch at the Dairy Queen
in the promise of the sap moon
a willing hunger possesses not
less the richer of the freely given
in provident plantations
profits tend the tyrannies of desire
as preface to a bitter dying
in casinos of the disappeared
the great swamp loss lingers
indifferent to mark the separation
as epilogue to neglect
as it was gives in
Doc Jones radio
getting ready for school
the Eastport to Block Island forecast
so this is where I come from
my place
yellowtail off Gray Gables
two lemon doughnuts at Sully's
and WPRI's Salty Brine
when I get back home
