The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for January 2007
Winter Fragments
(“Dream Gypsy”)
| 1. Morning listening walking through the darkness listening to smug successful people who believe in causality and will tell you gladly how they guided history or moved money or otherwise held fast the reins of their lives while i [listening watching wandering through the dawn] am content to let time galop while the past and i glide in a tuneful duet |
1a. Morning Again somebody’s got my nail clippings hair brush toe jam rocks in my socks |
2. Evening all elbows arms akimbo shopping bag hooked in one fist grabbing coffee cup in the other hunched shoulders blocking the purse strap slip not and that look in her eye like ‘who are these wierdos’ a little de fensive grin happy holi days |
