NORMAL RATE OF SPEED
Out west
a murmuration of black starlings
flash semaphores from the setting sun
while in stoic slowness
bison stride across the tributaries.
In the north
their distant cousins
the musk ox
steam and scowl
under frosted scruffs.
Compulsively Aimless is devoted to amateur attempts at short poems, wordplay, random excursions through my bookshelf, and general nonsense. The book lists in no way represent a complete, well-thought-out collection on any particular subject, but are what I happen to have on my shelf. Expect lists devoted to travel, adventure, America, history, and the unusual.
