Poem Poems

I ask them to take a poem
and hold it up to the light
like a color slide
...

I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.

Write, for instance: "The night is full of stars,
and the stars, blue, shiver in the distance."

...

A poem should be palpable and mute
As a globed fruit

Dumb

The distance, laden with terminal disease
Counting the days to eternal abyss

Fragile, a vein ruptures

She asks me
What is a poem?

It won’t make you sad.
It won’t make you miserable.
...

Take a newspaper.
Take some scissors.
Choose from this paper an article the length you want to make your poem.
Cut out the article.

I wrote a long poem
for you this morning
in the pure light
of an untouched day.

your heart beats shaped in a sorrowful poem..

filled by the heat of a hot ZONE, ..

Below the water surface
I put down my foundations
to build a house
with a tiny room
...

The light along the hills in the morning
comes down slowly, naming the trees
white, then coasting the ground for stones to nominate.
