Only a Father and Child in Time’s Long Call
A reflective verse tracing life from infant sea to aging father. The speaker notes stages from baby at a mother’s breast to a child brightening a home, a boy trudging to school under strict rule, and life’s maze shared with a loving wife. It ends with a father burdened by care as age weaves silver through hair and a crumbling heart grows old and pained.

Turbulent Voyage on a Troubled Sea and Mirthful Tall Tales

Silent sighs and distant days in a faded note
A collage of 19th century vignettes: a poetical lament on bygone brightness by Philander Johnson, a carpentry note about felling a mahogany tree leaving a high stump, curious Tennessee families with tall heights and light weights, two Coras correspondence about a sore foot, and the Pawnee Rock on the Santa Fe trail near Kaw.

Autumn harvests and a troubling quiet voice
The passage notes autumn fields and ripe grapes under a calm sun, then shifts to a jumbled critique of music and a shocking, explicit method for euthanizing a pet using chloroform and a sock. It references Emma Pollock, Dave Braham, and a dated tune and dancer, with a troubling healthful tip tucked in a discarded editorial voice.
