American Summer

Poems written while traveling.

Headland Cove


Seas palms rocking on the rocks.
White water swells and backswells—

continual agitation.  Two p.m.
and the fog so thick

the cypresses above Headland Cove
have vanished from the sightseers.

Sea lions barking off the coast—
the sound drifts amidst the flux

and reflex.  The sea palms snap.
A pale silhouette of creatures

sits on the rocks off the point:
awkward dogs upset over something.
