ALL YOU NEED IS LOAVES: YEAR NINE
1. Earth Day a bucket brigade lugs a ton or two of loam
to the sky garden. Pals sow wheat & barley. Pat it down.
Below the Ghosts of the Hungry Ghost--
the switchboard broads the pump house gang
the Chamber of Commerce the Secret Service
the chiropractor shrug & wonder.
2. How We Met
From radiation to the Ghost
we go. Tony Mathews metastatic jester
does a jig at the door.
Abandon all woe that nuclear winter
for the rise of desire:
a thousand ways to mate
to multiply sourdough water wheat & fire.
A pause in the bake—
Through the haze of flour at the mythic hearth:
Jonathan-harlequin-saboteur-troubadour
Cheryl-heron-sorrel-feral-Vesta
Welcome to the ferment
friendship is
how laughter & gesture
change our nature.
3. Hungry Ghost Bread (anagram evidence)

Hungry Ghost Bread
O earthbound headstrong rosy grandeur
rotund as turbans rare as reason
rough yet buoyant as honey sons & salty daughters.
Ah Hungry Ghost
no dearth only dragon breath .
O stony herb & starry yonder
dune to dough to loaf to yearn
to tongue to body bone to dung to rest
as botany as oat as rye a treasury
Beauty as a beggar's hand-out
yes !

Hungry Ghost Bread is exceedingly please to announce a quantum leap
in its pastry program!
Thanks to a new convection oven, all the sweet & buttery things no longer
have to wait for the bread to be baked first. Cookies, fig bars, buttermilk biscuits,
scones and more will be ready for purchase & noshing hours earlier. From 9am
opening and on through the afternoon, goodies will be marching through the pastry case:
éclairs, tarts, muffins and (mon dieu!) even croissants.
Patisserie and Boulangerie are now neck-in-neck, racing toward the
customers: but everybody wins.
As you can see from this photo (!), the oven is a Vulcan, so live long &
prosper, while you eat more –timely- treats.
