UBIQUITOUS

Images led 
their channeled winds

through a canal 

of birthrights


body.  

Another’s crude fingerprint

On the first to go

Becoming smaller

 

Bruised leaves

fungi

The particular

contractions.

 

Park paths. 

The yellow

slicker 

Others for ourselves

 

   *

The cobbled street ran along a canal

A man was going into one

Of the yellow buildings

He hung up his raincoat

Sat down at the chair by the door

And peeled off his galoshes

He had passed no one on the street

And the office was empty

There was a coffee machine down the hall

 

   *

Call it hazing

Or a military’s gauntlet

No joke.

 

The 1st Instance

Entirely undivided

Before you pull apart

 

Sugared cinnamon

Fried dough

Loose change
