The illusion chooses
John Wayne’s fuck you swagger
into the dust
There’s a reason for everything
in a random kind of way
down at central casting
anything but
flapping around out there
Everything lost
or found
steering the blue sky toward the decoy
& the idea behind it
changing from one minute
to the next
a kind of roll-yr-own addiction
from which these inventories of
beach hardware
rattle in the haze
