IMPROVISATION #249
THOMAS LUX'S LIFE
(1946-2017)

Eye interweaves
your irony of words
that glance on the snow
of Northampton
glittering in the night
of an urban reading
in an academic basement
on a cold windy night
you circle our minds
with clever connections
we do not think to be
in perpetual motion
by shadows turning out
never to be ever erased
on the sidewalk
of self-effacement.
