how about
about my mediocrity of character? I dance
with the dead divinely
in my dreams
I'm stricken deaf when I mention it my babies
cry they want everything quick! here. un-
mentioned
as character should be
like the purpurine it needs must be carved in,

brilliant diamond eyes? She is the puppet

he doesn't let you swoon
into aventurine or spray
of lily (pearls) of the valley

today we will visit with the ear syringe
be the current density
honey flower
ice egg

awaiting the plop of a

here

may I in my eye now me
