To Obama from the Porch School
written with Bernadette Mayer & Philip Good & James Belflower
Easy xoxxooxxox & a box
asses askew, solutions on the eyes
like hibiscus novellas, leaves of ideas
in a field or porch, impatient
with flowers for chairs
globie, where/how could you?
doltishly sounding out
denominations of the dollar bills
the world is a spoon, the spoon works
& hard is the range of the floor
Lucky dreams line tumbling
shapes block wrong cross
downpour nails across a balance
place muscular color as
downpour leaves like a train
o whisper Obama in the attic
around a wheel of a wagon
if you be the dolphin of love
glancing light
pages soak up color
