A Sort of Song
Let the snake wait under
his weed
and the writing
be of words, slow and quick, sharp
to strike, quiet to wait,
sleepless.
---through metaphor to reconcile
the people and the stones.
Compose. (No ideas
but in things) Invent!
Saxifrage is my flower that splits
the rocks.
-William Carlos Williams
CURIOS
Deer Tracks
Beautiful, sobbing, high-geared fucking
and then to lie
silently like deer tracks
in the freshly-fallen snow
beside the one you love.
That's all.
-Richard Brautigan
