Truncated Picture, In Smoking Robe Poem by Denis Mair

(for a cut-up by Nico Vassilakis, posted April 21)
... ... ... ... ... ...

truncation dislocates a smoking jacket...

a half open interior will have to serve as the head...

I imagine it addressing a fourth wall, but that isn't my position...

in a phase of crumpling, the viewing room's entrance is out of reach...

eyes hungry for outside views feed off a screen there...

the room attendant is also there, but he is so-o over it…

if a clown in cloud-clothes appears, something amazing will follow...

an ecstatic Alan Ginsberg-figure has gotten to his feet;

now he's breaking into a dance.
