That Old Table with the Orange Chairs
an ashtray from africa made of elephant’s tusk
maybe not elephant’s tusk I don’t know three PBR
cans a trippel o’mara’s irish cream seeds: parsley cilantro
arugula mint rosemary lavender basil a plastic slide-loc bag
w/ raisins an empty water glass which you take &
are filling up now a napkin w/ charcoal stains a spoon
the same remote razor blade old & dull razor blade
new & sharp st. louis football cardinals glass w/
ice cubes long since past a dictionary & thesaurus I just
feel disconnected it don’t mean much drink some water you say
candles midsummer night’s dream a flame how’d
you get “no” outta that? alexander, no, better this time
andrew jackson rolled up upon himself two pairs of glasses
the word games post-dispatch candle warmer lamp w/o a
lampshade camel lights notebooks a water
glass tourney brackets now
crystals popping drying
enjoy the bump in the road
it might be the last.
