Letter to Tom P.
-----------------------
I had no idea
where the path through you
would go when I first met you,
all blond on blond
with wispy bits of unruly gold
all around you.
I thought bright haired people
always avoid the cold.
In spite of the rags and bits of paper,
you looked redeemed.
When you told me about the dark,
the fever, the rage, the land of nothing,
and you sung your angry, pent-up songs,
I declared how strong you are
to avoid madness or live at the edge
of madness without slipping over.
You are bound in safety
because of the asbestos qualities of art.
Social
---------
The fully fattened spider
dies with compliance
following the ancient spider code
hung paralyzed amid her teeming babes
the very protein of her body
giving lessons to the cannibal future.
The salmon eagerly punches
toward death. That is his wedding day
with all the pumped up fishy fantasies
stored in his milky brain. He perishes
stuporous in one and final lastitude.
As for me,
goodbye will
turn my eyes to you as the future shrinks.
I will be nothing and you will be all.

Thank you guys. The cover is a part of a drawing I made a few years ago called "Becoming the Grocer."
