(for Adam)

This visual field:
how do you define environment?
This environment, trails of
headlights, safe houses,
strong willow. Supported sprout,
steady, ailing limbs ---
South Pasadena in a circle
'cept it's not. It's Oakland.
Would you live across the 80?
Five months from this bench will
we share a common couch?

My ken is so internal
the flavor of my mental state
determined by the view but
not the avenues.
Name specifics,
I want the details
Who is in wine country now?
Willow, willow serpentine
sports car
veranda, beacon, doors
creaking in the lock.
Your old shoes on the
threshhold of the field.
61st and Canning, chimneys,
Streetlights on the diagonal,
Sweep of circle.
