Chatting with Allen Ginsberg

ag: I place my hand before my beard with awe

cp: finger my chin hairs, curly, soft, blond

ag: and stare through open-uncurtained window

cp: watch the cat step across the sill

ag: rooftop rose-blue sky thru

cp: fractaled lichened trees

ag: which small dawn clouds ride

cp: radiant blue sky

ag: rattle against the pane

cp: gravel rubbled across the lawn

ag: lying on a thick carpet matted floor

cp: castings of the late night snow plow

ag: at last in repose on pillows my knees

cp: disappear in warmth, the snow

ag: bent beneath brown himalayan blanket, soft —

cp: parade of boot- & footprints melting —

ag: fingers atremble to pen, cramp

cp: hands agrip on garden rake, light

ag: pressure diddling the page white

cp: touch coaxing the stones loose

ag: San Francisco notebook —

cp: Vermont false spring
