Florida, Feb. 17
Sundown at Howard Park,
dirty clouds over the horizon,
but, at the last moment, the red sun
peeks beneath the dark ceiling
and lights the gray waves
lapping at the lip of the causeway
and the underside of the front
from the west horizon to the east.
Read Steven King’s Duma Key,
first couple weeks here. 600 pages
to tell that story is like a 20-minute
version of Blitzgrieg Bop.
After that I read Hemingway’s
To Have and Have Not.
At 267 pages it coldcocks Duma Key,
brings old Florida and Cuba to life.
1st episode of Dexter; my new
favorite TV show. It’s about a
serial killer, set in Miami.
It has precise Florida light.
Waxing moon spreads crazy
intense shadows. A palm out front
has half-a-dozen reflections
in its fronds like the stars above.
