DEEP purple shade, stain, OOMPH and UNPH
dark dark silhouettes
pine trees -- three old men
against the graying sky
rise up, look out
as yang gives way to yin
and sheets of wet dirty cotton roll
in over the hills


moss still
grows up and down these branches
below, patches of green like unripe limes


barricades!
first farther lines of trees stuck in
the ground at odd angles
and closer manmade
funny barrels of wire jostling each other in line
CAUTION
the yellow tape says


I find deer shit in the field
I shat before I came out here
Oh there she is now
She sees me and ballets away


This is a yang poem and its inspiration
is quickly sinking behind the earth
sometimes yang gives way to yin
everything changes
and poems end
