Abalone II

Paddle

rain    

           sandhill     crane

elders   tell    Harrington    

words    for    water 

for  laugh

and 

danger.

                     Raw   and

                   border less

loneliness

disguised as

loveless ness

of lost landscapes,

pigeons and gulls.

Abandoned radioactive 

mine/d/s. A ridge. 

Coal arriving to port.

A 26-foot-tall saint

points west in faux sand-

stone on one knee, lying

about Neruda 
not lost to cancer
but  loving  us.
