no diggity

I like the way you work it , slip it
accross ice streets
over the wind blows
snow drift walls stay put once their here
for months , no doubt
wool socks and down walks
essential parts of the cold wet frozen north

robins at the river

the ice is cracked and rotten
and the worms are hidden and forgotten
and the geese are over there in the mist

the robins are on the bush with one berry between
the twenty

dar must calamari werden

tentacles grabbing the spectacles
off the captains decorated hat
that is why the rock struck such
a big hole in the hull
and down to the shallow bottom she went

since the latest

everyone is irish
eating potato goulash from chipped porcupine dishes
and watching for the warm weather to come down the line
and the frozen lawns to turn to green clover

NEW YEAR

the not so new year is hearing
me shout out the name
Happy New YEars again
lets blame the last one on the misfortunes implemented on
all of us and the bust that was eleven is going to
be the unleavened bread that is stuck in
a sand bath to bake under the sun of twelve swans a swimming
and an ermine running around a white mouse frowning and an owl
sounding the depths of the hole

we the simple

le bop, in french
be bop, in califormenting
a rain storm on the horizon, the switch
of wind brings the flies, horizontal and flapping
a gibberish of things liberal and finished with a shining wax
coat. the table with plaster pasted on it on accident
it sat under the load that played out and that was that.

ITS NOT EVEN OUT TABLE!
it doesnt matter though cause its not even tennis and the
beryllium vases with pine tree gasses filling ip, the new way
to say that is rising is high sung christmas classics on a sunny
sunday afternoon, plain enervated radios.

on a clear day

you cant see foreever
cause for ever after there is a further place
to be. you will be further way out there from there
. so is foreever further than you are from forever?

I have taken to the rabbit of asking questions.
like a symmetric fox snaking in and out of holes
and fence post rows, the punctuation
of a roman numeralized phonetic diagram.

We have ties to the afternoon and the evening
that comes sooner and sooner in december and then gets
later in the day in january and february and then at some point
I dont remember ever reading about what its pakycefalasaurus is averted yet

sloth and desist

In a millipede time scale
the trees sway and bow
and the snow pours down
and the wind is sipping the heat from the tea

I notice the nicety
of thirsty mice
who stop to drink wine from the pools
on the floor
leaving without tipping the scales one way or another
cause they are light mice

what are letters

letters are stand ins for numbers
for signals.

are they dimensionless? well its harder rather
to tell, if they are but they might be if its important.


then the next thing to do is make a comparison
to alternative realities or domains
in pans to be cooked
and eaten chewed and fastened down in a library of happening

too big to fart

the man walked in with a big round belly
and it was hanging over his belt
which was already struggling againts the gravity
of the money bags and gold bars hanging on.

the doctors looked him over and he looked overly fed.
he looked over the parking lot where his
humdinger was parked and thought this would be the last ride.

the old doctors get his money first. they have had a little
hard time cutting lumps, not usurury becuase this guy has so much
fat to give. they said. actually, you are just indigesting.
looks like a terrible case of gas.
what have you been eating?

paper. . . plastic. . ... imaginary numbers..... stuff like that.

oh hummm. .

he's too big to fart! it will blow us all down. it will stink.
so they pumped him full of their private stock of de-gasser. of peptodismal and
peppermint cookies. they asked him questions about if it was enough. they gave him
two tablespoons of pure bicarbonate soda and one glass of water.
