Avebury

Dave BontaContemplative

I go on one foot into the company of stones

standing like old people hard as tradition

high stones prodigious stones

stones growing out of the ground thick as wonder

stones at the poor house having their aches

Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Monday 15 June 1668 (Pepys’ notes for an unfinished entry)

Dave Bonta

Learn by heart: tap a gap

I go on one
into the of stones
