He shows everyone<\/p>\n
the way to the apple-stash<\/p>\n
we follow this gash<\/p>\n
up the street wondering<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
imagine walking though<\/p>\n
from a room having lain<\/p>\n
awake all night<\/p>\n
or having woken early<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
tying that knot<\/p>\n
highly specialized extravaganza<\/p>\n
skill the absurd lurch<\/p>\n
into nowhere<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
or just leaning down calmly<\/p>\n
into a blotched grimace<\/p>\n
tag in the air<\/p>\n
secured threading the hyperstructure<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
don’t do it we will regret it<\/p>\n
according to parameters<\/p>\n
a sleep a fruit<\/p>\n
weep my lute<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
he carried through<\/p>\n
Vlad hangs on his knees loving him in his way<\/p>\n
all tongue was he happy<\/p>\n
to taste the coffee<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
this cup (mine) smells of earth<\/p>\n
or chick-peas the last drink<\/p>\n
rarely lives up to its billing<\/p>\n
I would like to grieve more<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
but knew him little<\/p>\n
praise him without whorls<\/p>\n
or particular decorum<\/p>\n
who turned away<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
from it all owing something<\/p>\n
nothing a note flipped<\/p>\n
from his hand as he knotted<\/p>\n
the threads dropped<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
even this being literature<\/p>\n
picked over held up<\/p>\n
assailed in a jury box<\/p>\n
each whisper turned septic<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
he has the view now<\/p>\n
over everything that was keeping him<\/p>\n
consolations dandled<\/p>\n
between the covers<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
health in the sick-bed<\/p>\n
shelter for the pursued<\/p>\n
enlightenment for the cozened<\/p>\n
lithium for the overexcited<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
he is who we want him to be<\/p>\n
a full stop<\/p>\n
like a dot of pond mud<\/p>\n
swarming with animalculae<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
