A Poet

 A poet is a mountain doing a drunken headstand 

upside-down

on a sidewalk in Times Square
peak poised on a single rock
icemelt runoff in a sharp, steep ravine
a dust devil twirling til it hits basalt 
a massive flood, a drought of thought, that 
lone wisp
of cloud disappearing in a
bright 
blue 
sky
