Pseudo-Expressionless

pseudo-expression's
      of ragged diamonds
  a fugazi sans brilliance,
  shiner midst vague skies 
           in the optical jags of
       practical indifference

Love this poem, Paloma. It has such a neo-Harlem Ren post-cool vibe to it. You for sure coulda ran w/my father's set of poetic contemporaries. People I learned my craft under their feet. You got the gift for sure. Love always from the RW.

It's about indifference and phonies, actually I just wanted to use the word fugazi in a poem. :)
