about

Have you forgotten what we were like back then, when we were still first rate and the day came fat with an apple in its mouth.

What is, is by its nature, on display.

Words' meanings count, aside from what they weigh: poetry, like music, is not just song.

What is, is by its nature, on display.

We talk together in a common way. Art, like death, is brief: life and friendship long.
I do not always understand what you say.

What is, is by its nature, on display. O what a physical effect it has on me to dive forever into the light blue sea of your acquaintance!

It is beautiful, when October is over, and February is over, to sit in the starch of my shirt, and to dream of your sweet ways!

We walk through the park in the sun, and you say, “There’s a spider of shadow touching the bench, when morning’s begun.”

I love you fame I love you raining sun I love you cigarettes I love you love I love you daggers.

I love smiles daggers and symbolism.

Sunflower awning by the nurse-faced chrysanthemums childhood again represents a summer spent sticking knives into porcelain raspberries. Not like an edge of land coming over the sea!

It was always November there. The little birds used to collect along the fence. It was the great “as though,” the how the day went, the excursions of the police as I pursued my bodily functions, wanting neither fire nor water, vibrating to the distant pinch and turning out the way I am, turning out to greet you.
