Stolen Apples (collaborative rengay)
ljc--Lisa Janice Cohen, gary--Gary Blankenship
wind and fog
whisper secrets
through old webs
(gary)
the formal garden
strangled by vines
(ljc)
rope swing
abandoned for boys
and net stockings
(gary)
in the eaves
a yellowed newspaper
from 1923
(ljc)
I listen to Grandpa
teach how to steal apples
(gary)
a faint outline
crows feet in the mirror--
her mother's eyes
(ljc)
