The avocado is magical. What's magical in a poem?

Everything.  Everything in both -- avocado & poetry.  Taste, color & surprise.  & speaking of geometry, aren't triangles nifty, although I think a poem is more like a circle or spiral.  Nevertheless, triangles make making things happen as much as a pen, the poem.

    The merchant considered early lessons:
    a river overflows the plains
    and delivers a message of despair
    walking toward the horizon a figure in trouble

    old and awful voices ring out in church halls
    but who impeded the episodes at the doorstep
    who said things that didn't matter anymore
    who gave the southern accent reason to be afraid?
