the exercise below is strictly for cobweb-clearing. It’s something I do once every so often just to reset all the switches in my head.
the room
the room is light blue
white door red rose
around the posey ring
bring a mouthful of rosey
to the white noise of ringing wind.
tape up that hole in the screen
keep the mosquitoes in
then open the window to torture them.
wave at me darling, i know you can see
beyond the end of your toes
’cause once you sink you sink forever
and your reaching hand becomes
another growing plant in the field and
no one will know why it looks that way you say
don’t look at me that way
just sit and eat your grain. raw. unhusked.
in the middle of the threshing floor
by the fistful – stretch while you’re at it
then strew the lavender over it
like they used to.
say hi to susie creamcheese before you return
she’s stuck on the web
and can’t get out the product of a star
in late years set to appear at random.
get the turkey in 30.
