Brilliant trees
drop
their gold.
Today’s Supreme Court
nominee
Yesterday’s boozy rapist
Humphrey’s voice
for civil rights against
his Southern colleagues
only to take
the progressive teeter
to Johnson’s Texas totter
At a too perfect fall wedding
McRedeye lent an arm
to the bride on the upslope
only to be cast out of
Telluride’s cathedral vestibule
after ceremony & signings
Life rafts of aspen leaves
Castaways underfoot
like rice like old applause
alone with what’s been done
As on the way up
so coming down
