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.

ReplyDeleteThe 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?
