Somewhat Aphasic
Somewhat aphasic,
Not a speaker,
I can write instead,
And do
Because I’m slow
And need the time.
Do I dare an interview?
TV program literary,
Authors answering so cleverly?
I, sent back to, running to
The paper, my
imaginary reader
In my in my mind my sites,
To play with word, idea rhythm,
Played out
one against the other.

Notes from the Overground: Thoughts On Touring
Book, cd, performance, what!
I do not want to tour.
An effort that I could, if forced
But see through the illusions:
All-inclusive energies –
Pushing, meeting, signing,
Introducing, marketing;
Hidden bragging
Sell and spread.
Every night a hotel bed.
That!
Everybody’s doing it.
Television’s full of it:
Reputation in a wink –
They think.
There is no quick.
Success invalid,
Success a pallid despot
With a jealous eye
Towards quick eternity:
We want to be remembered.
It’s genetic – since the days we were Neanderthals
(DNA 3-4%)
Confirmation from the grip, grope, group
That grabs you by the gargling throat.
It’s poetry
That’s fun.
