Draft of a New Poem
I have a busy day today: an emergency weather meeting at 7:15 this morning (you see, my interest in rain and storms is not entirely casual) then I have to be back in town for court at 8:30.

This is one for which a chromolithograph survives.

Here is the chromolithograph.
*poof!*

I love this. The way the poem goes sideways toward these endings—and I love the break leaving 'to do this' so far away.
Now every time I see a hummingbird I think of you, Heade, these poems. Which is a lovely thing.
Thank you!
I'm glad I got to read it before it went poof!
I'm post-"poof" and pouting.
I came back to read it to a friend and it was all poofed. waaa
