Paterson lies in the valley under the Passaic Falls
its spent waters forming the outline of his back. He
lies on his right side, head near the thunder
of the waters filling his dreams! Eternally asleep,
his dreams walk about the city where he persists
incognito. Butterflies settle….wcwilliams

so much depends
upon

an overturned
wheelbarrow

quiet
beneath

its coating
of snow

There really is something called cleared hot Andy stumphf? Def wcwilliams poem comes to mind: the pure products of America go crazy

Thank you. "...like a buttercup upon its branching stem." ~WCWilliams.
I wanted to offer community, but mostly got critiqued. I don't mind being corrected, yet you were kind enough to offer encouragement. Living in the desert, I see little 'greenys' struggling all year long.

WCWilliams needs more love. And plums.

rereading WCWilliams In the American Grain: the chapter entitled “Cotton Mather’s Wonders” might well be a series of current social media posts . . . uncanny!

This is just to say

I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox

and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast

Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold
