WE ARE LOOKING OUT
by Carol Louise Moon

In a mighty zeppelin,
a honey-colored bird—
the two of us, vacationing.
Green hills, blue skies,
red flares, purple regrets,
ravens on the horizon.

We are looking out
for the children—
rhinos
in their bath tubs
who have left
living room carpets,
carpet crumbs and
carpet bugs.

From where we float
we hear the distant tune
of a spider's violin.

LOSING MY MUSIC
by B.Z. Niditch

When I lost
the night music
briefly
for a chamber recital
at a basement in Frisco
yet am quickly restored
by Mozart's clarinet's harmony
in the slow third movement
all indolent regrets
the groundless secret passages
adagio shadows
in a modulation of the cellos
a diminished viola chord
and an augmented violin note
suddenly appears
in the third movement
somehow reminding me
of the orange squares
in a Mondrian print
on the arts balcony overhead
and speaks to my estrangement
like a mirage of notes
opening this spring evening
in an experiment
of my future resonant words.
