by Jackson Pollock
Tracing patterns that occur deliberately
which is to say completely by chance
“He was all the time talking to himself”
“Couldn’t get a word in wedge-wise”
“They said he had a bi-polaroid personality”
All you really need are EMERALDS, PEARLS, & aspirin
(325 mg, a bottle of 300 tablets)
EXTENDED HOURS
peacock feathers
When the dime stops spinning we could trade transgressions
(I had always thought the denouement was a
call to double down motherfucker)
Heartbeat. Footsteps. Rain.
The transition from one to the other to the next
Shadows within shadows as in a film
I called it Romance with Opiates (A Limited Engagement)
Now playing at a theater near you
