North: MAUDLIN
#maudlin memories
look back over fifty years
and those were the days
South: NEW LEAVES
they begin again
#newleaves on the sapling trees
what will the year hold?
Nursing a whiskey
Watching the dying embers
Here’s to absent friends
_Three Syllables_
I think
the fog comes
On muffled titan feet.
It swallows all
one could see,
deafens with silence
the bombs, the screams;
but we feel the steps
they take.
All apologies to Carl Sandburg.
For better or worse
Maudlin is my middle name
At least I can laugh
