Terrific, Mitch. My favorite is "The Door is Always Open," though it is hard to beat the last line of "The Packard Eucalyptus" (or the poem's first word, for that matter). "Norby" is, among other things, a play on the triolet as a verse form. Anyway. . .bravo.

I love the voice of the speaker. I get an entire presence, physique, wardrobe, tone of voice---maybe even a little bit of a hitch in his gait.

These are wonderful poems, guess i will be looking into another poet totally new to me...ioanna carlsen, great omen for a new year

I left it
on when I
left the house
for the pleasure
of coming back
ten hours later
to the greatness

"After You've Gone"
on the piano
in the corner
of the bedroom
as I enter
in the dark
