because i'm taking it a poem at a time
because it's all teardown in barracks square
big rain drops one more encore want more . . .?
because sunday free concert is in the mojo
because visitors were in my space before
doors were open easel or spool table outside
because i'm in a green rocking chair sipping coffee
because i found a hot pink beer token at the tap
because whitefeather thought it a gold ink logo
condom—a harvest play safe in clear wrapper
because someone's playlist is on a guitar boomers box
because gatorgrit 1500-b waterproof sandpaper is
because i'm finding soapstone widow and orphan
scraps from johanus' carvings to let people know
i am here inukshuks scattered in gravel and grass
under young oak trees—can make my own marker
stone word atop stone word—poem person standing
on headland heartland homeland—orange & black fragile
because junior brown helps me drive this sunday
while so many others teardown i thrum my digits
