Play your green-grass guitar
Throw your gold medals in the water
Buy a bouquet of yellow roses
hung round your neck like a heavy halo

I can only stand with my roots
making cracks across the grass
Out over the patient ocean,
waiting for every pilot
is the circle
that maps his point of no return,
beyond which
the fuel that trembles in the tanks
will only carry him ......

to spill the blood of another
two-story god
with a building in his body
and vines cracking his facade

Low star, slippry and dense
Low star, walk the rooftops
Low star, impervious.

I’ll ask you once so softly mister
Oh please don’t take her away
I know you’ve got this silver silk brocade
and you’re planning to show her
of just what you are made
There’s an old swing
hanging from one of the trees
out back
that craves child’s play
They ... entire poem
All your pain silently wept
in one grief packed droplet
falling from the corner of your eye
unnoticed by anyone
but ... entire poem
Saturday morning / eating albaricoque / we find you bull dog
