Dixie Cups knives forks dishes spoons-

Fantastic

Flashlight you're in big game country You're

Walking in outer space In a mountain rescue

Team fighting off a dragon

Exploring

A ghost town

Examining a train for secret agents! Aha!

"The Nostoi"

Tinge of the cold as I get out of my bed

At 5:00 A.M The marble cock-crow of Peter

in the courtyard

Blood-red

Nail-polish worn by commuters on the bus tries to flap it's wings

As I look up once again "No Smoking"

-How many poets of the future will make a play on words of that!

The journey is a journey of purification

Divesting itself

America

As I leave and enter each of

Its cities

The Seven Cities of Homer the Seven Cities of

Cibola

Where my words wind in and

Out like the procession

Of dancers during Holy Week of

The Yaqui Easter

O Anonymity of Women walking to work in a sea of svelt-silk-stockinged legs!

Dashing through rapid fire jokes

At their expense "A photo-finish"

"If I had a nickel to get around the world"

"I couldn't get started"

Truant muse what shall be

Your amends

A woman travelling on board with her

A^gapanthus (of the lily family)

"It's so much nicer now"

In the old days they used to give you a lead pillow!
