    Salt Ripple.

    One man, one ashtray,
    the old man with beads paints alone.
    The storm passes over,
    Moon Child is always with him.

    Mermaid's handbag, I find my cure,
    near the salt water medicine.
    Sanpipers dance, I watch the moves,
    way off Broadway.

    Far away now,
    from the madness of erotic politics,
    I think I should never return.
    remain here, become pure again
    among the thunderstorms and greensnakes.

    The old man with beads
    sings baritone in the shower.
    The storms have passed over,
    leaving sadness, uncertainty and hope.

    Ancient energy here...
    the moon shows up in late afternoon.
    She's imitating a cloud.
    Foamy egg moon we hatched from,
    our ancient dust and rock birth sack.

    Thanks again, Sister K.

    Odd that "Sister K" only posted once to AAPC, and it was to praise one
    of Will's "poems." Is this the corpse of Lady K, rising again from the
    slab?
