The rejected found poems
"Admissions for Submission"
A. He was a middle-class conversationalist. Carried a black umbrella. I was as twisted as a poppy. Thorns and potpourri. It was so 90's.
B. Something about greatness, something about hue. A vehicle for dreamers. In the poems he never stopped smoking and always stole the roses.
C. Never could arrange the perfect trifecta. Twine left in the paws of a cat. Now he has two dogs.
.....
"A Tie"
Black with aqua swirls. Straightened in the back seat
before stepping onto the curb, at the marble steps of St. Lucy's.
A Variation - "After"
We tied off with your funeral tie. First you, then I.
I always needed help.
Tell me again, what the wind does to your kind.
........
"I Remember You Workshopping, CLEARING THE TABLE WITH ANGEL FEATHERS"
@ the gazebo. You told me that some angels do smoke. You talked about angels, a lot.
It was snowing. Listen, 64% of this country believe in them, according to a recent article in Newsweek. And, you had seen a few on the 3rd floor of that hospital. . Remember Nina and how she melted crayons on the steam radiators. Her sleeves were always rolled up. Sometimes she was a blonde.
"In Heavy Rotation"
1. Raising the Titanic BY not the hand of God
2. There is a Trace of You BY pulling me toward what little remains
