In the Vicinity of a Grocer
Michael Gizzi
Nothing doing but squirrels watching crime novels
minutes before it wasn't vintage but
the curious way wind holes in the maples
makes me wonder Professor Moriarty wasn't
drinking last night with the North Wind
Elsewhere the bastion of ensuing edges
makes pledges of willpower
over to Powerless Landing
at least we're not trepanned in California
I don't know the kitchen table dead
but I'll pass on the brouhaha
they made a printout of, the family
now in limbo of first apartment cutlery
but that was January which needs no secretary
we'd like to change but continue
accordiour greeter seems to be growing an eagle
in addition to 78 epaulets when
if anything it's an activity chimp
he's carried 30 years psi
Wonderful to discuss western potluck
on the delegates couch, on specific nights
wipe out people and bus the hatchet
but what about the other two arms
and legs expanding without church approval?
that's just a chair we discontinued
in the sad defunct
what else to do spread yourself green
Anybody wants to see somebody better raise their hand
we're not going to heaven in a group
and more than likely your attackee
will go to court growing pains
everyone's got this Andromeda strain
the cherubim I think are the ones hang
from the roof of the cave
where due to lack of shank birds
crap on houses where folks lay eggs in your eyes
You can return to the coalmine now Apollo
the vanishing point's erased and my solitude
knows yours (it's a beautiful body of work
that doesn't involve haunting?)
gave me quite a thrashing the other night
I'll have to mend my speech
it's getting dark around the swings
and older trances no less toxic
like love is embarassing
after TW
