set free from scale


standing in front of puddles as drum-skins,

presenting of a stationary marching corp.

forrest edges are as tall carpets 

in a loss of a sense of scale, 

magically impressing before me.

a group of gathered buildings,

as books on a wide open countryside bookshelf,

as if as a sense of false scale 

brings me wonderment into laughter.

where long lines of traffic seemingly stalled,

as the wonder of script aerials, sighted on a page.

small towns with one major intersection,

as a centerpiece on a large diner table spread.

silos from a far distance sighting,

as salt and pepper shakers far across the counter.

a river as shimmering ribbon

on an ever so large package wrapped.

a tall big-sized dumpster

as a stud-cufflink 

on a long-sleeved concrete alley arm of a shirt.

billboards as clothing tags

on a lateral closet edgewise, 

as a hi-way view in passing.

sky-shots down on farmlands, 

as patchwork quilts laid open for airing.

park-benches statued with stilled people

as art-studies of human-kind on display.

train crossings as zipper-lines 

on massive who would wear that apparel?

lofted views down onto large housing subdivisions 

as concrete hieroglyphics in street-print, 

on a house-faced backdrop page.

oh, what sight can see,

when set free from the script precision of scale . . .
