Good poets get
passed like bad wine,
as I take a jug of Emily Oliver
from Tara. A poet warrior,
opine in prose; precision
in paint splashed on moon rises

Oliver I find interesting
Deep patterns, Ohio hops from
pages; so much form, in the
free form

Yet like a summer wind,once grasped
meaning fades,
of truth still left, honeysuckle
bits stuck in your teeth

As soon as I see
a pattern Mary left for
me, it
vanishes,
that frog sinking
below,
a meaning in bellowing
stalks of commas; hiding
our amphibian friend as
he travels
happily on, needing no
truth at all.
