The Crops That Your Uncle And My Tio Attend

Bandy-legged but wearing your favorite color of
Helmet with Ulysses’ wings:
I float on the clouds the mariposas struggle for,
And I pay to sneak into the zoo with you Alma, last Monday,
...

To Figure Out Who You Are

The party lasses are at their sport
Batting eyes across the flight plans of their daily tennis
Courts:
And you ring up their acts on your machine Alma:

And I knelt on the other side of your vehicle today

1470.
