February

my driveway back home in
wheat prating of cola is
red in barley duo not
contemptible rye stamped heavy on
battleship silver service seed breeding
roots tubers in sweet clover
pero la carretera es verde
ready for play to continue

January

pyre us mountain home hill-garland
car carapace not more twin
backroad winebottle small above jeans
dashlit blossom glabrous in all
her glory no-man crickets in
polytechnic hedge much debatement sisterly
earthward nodding five-petalled statewide jellied
common clipped whose lustre lingers

Epigraph

Blinky Watts is not blind.

November

the way downward is gastric
distress night and day trumpet-tongued
men who took fieldmustard Alleluia
no crookedness untried hopeless men
lobbing useless missiles don't leave
a house half-built sprawl here
butterfly home sweet sightless angelic
pissing in the sun's face

October

took cup of gold a
Varangian bath teach her sober
ways disturbed thrives hilarity brimming
scarlet carnation McKinley's heavenly flower
nuptial all day no prize
better worn at finals white
wallowed left in the inkpot
swilled seen drenched flowers lean

September

dry'd butterflies ash-or-olive glory moonflowers
sonnet-perfect ornamental deep gentlemen of
brave metal lift Heavenly blue
by some accounts 40 neighboring
Paradise trod it is a
curse worthless John the Conqueror
root amulet tip take tomes
love-in-vain tiara and the lock

August

green to through pines wake
first get a house hovel
ten feet by ten hinges
take it down unmannerly resident
wild scold rampant yerk out
who could refrain inedible two
barrowloads of junk be quit
careful with that ox, Eugene
