Frescos in the Garden

On the matter of words 

I can speak freely 

Words like 

  1. tightrope and chainsmoke 

  2. and 

  3. carcass 

I’d say there’s no such thing 

as a one way 

or a yield sign 

Or the skin of a zebra 

or a cobra 

splattered sick by the pipeline 

I’d say go ahead because 

If you think of your life 

in a good way, you’re free 

to live it however you please 

Words like 

  1. Why not

  2. Make the world you live in 

  3. Believe in the world you live in

«we for a living tap dance»

we for a living 

tap dance. 

i daylight as dynamite,

but i was taught that 

sleep comes quiet—

to the fault line.

break dance

when the cooing’s a cope

for the first time.
