Frank O'Hara (27 March 1926 – 25 July 1966 / Baltimore, Maryland)
Poems by Frank O'Hara : 23 / 43
Melancholy Breakfast
Melancholy breakfast
blue overhead blue underneath
the silent egg thinks
and the toaster's electrical
ear waits
the stars are in
"that cloud is hid"
the elements of disbelief are
very strong in the morning
