One Fine Morning,
I'm gonna ride out
So said Callahan
and I agree
I'm gonna ride out
Today, I am a part of the
Long summer road
Grateful for the rain
Morning Sun
Driving past Harlan
Thought about Jescoe
Listening to Lennon
Watching the Wheels
I can hear the wheels
In the Wheel there lies a Seed
Something Gelb said
Under a Punishing Sun
(Will it breed or will it bleed?)
Crooning with Waits
For love of Moon
I hope the wheels don’t come off
I hope my pony knows
The way
Around the Serpent Mound
Over The Underground
Thinking about Callahan
Singing about Sutherland
Headed Home on a Winter Road
Midpoint
and the air lost weight
Some day
No more drovering
But the seed's not yet safe
Under this punishing Sun
The hardest part
Of the road
Just keep on ...
Now Molina
Capricorn brother
Singing me a Capricorn Truth
Didn't It Rain
Didn't it rain, again, brother
Never let them Ring the Bell
I set my pulse to the Great Lakes' pulse
Ahead of a blue Capricorn Moon
This one for growing antlers
Algol, hold me in this trine
