Night walk in Cemetery

Night walk in Cemetery

The stone gutters upset
by time, cold, and tree roots
form a series of steps
where the surfeit from sprinklers
collecting, increasing
small deluge, with rushing,
falls the water down.


This was written as a result of my many night-time walks in the SLC cemetery located a few blocks from my home.

stone gutters
a descending poem
as life ongoes
as rushing water
