OPENING LINES IN A NEW NOTEBOOK
for Lloyd Draper in the Cañon del Muerto
The way I hear the song, Lloyd,
you’re the Blessingway. Listen,
He comes upon me with blessing.
Before him, from there.
That’s how it happened in Chinle.
That’s how the song goes.
One more verse, same song:
Behind him, it is blessed.
Before him, it is blessed.
What happened in the restaurant.
Poems are letters to family and friends.
The notebook will receive all you have.
Your friend in the Yakima Canyon,
Jim
