On the Waterfront


In the last years I wanted to see
On The Waterfront
The audible Brando
with depressed eyes
wandering in the face
in its elegy about Mob
However really I wanted to hear
concerning the Joey
Joey
that was to be trainer of pigeons
but he fell of the roof.

Marilyn Monroe



You made your lips more real
with lipstick, your red
lips
swallow a balcony
full of eyes.

Sylvia and Ted


When you were with me
I never could die
My eyes wandered
without you, my fear had noises
all the steps, the shadows
were solid things
when I wrote the death
it scratched out sheets of paper
but when you were with me
I was for lasting the entire life
Your legs
supported my falls.

The Picasso Conspiracy

With the infinite in a notebook
an eye
that arrives of the distance
Picasso cuts
the forms truly, bodies pulled out
from the volume
for all the beauty of the lines
its things with creaking of lungs breathe.

(Thomas-John Parr)

Study Nature, by Gertrude Stein

I do.
Victim.
Sales
Met
Wipe
Her
Less.
Was a disappointment
We say it.
Study nature.
Or
Who
Towering.
Mispronounced
Spelling.
She
Was
Astonishing
To
No
One
For
Fun
Study from nature.
I
Am
Pleased
Thoroughly
I
Am
Thoroughly
Pleased.
By.
It.
It is very likely.
They said so.
Oh.
I want.
To do.
What
Is
Later
To
Be
Refined.
By
Turning.
Of turning around.
I will wait.

Poems of a line



The moon inside of a wash tub.


The leaves hit the wind.
