The Penelope Squad
“The Penelope Squad”
A line of bluebirds
tittering on a line
swaying on the winds
like comedian pageboys
having a good time
poop in the peg bucket
words wooden and sharp
fly off with frosty notes
dirt and sherry stains
imprinted on
Penelope’s...

In the velvety night, caressed by shadows
In the velvety night, caressed by shadows,
A poet whom I deeply respect whispered to me,
That my verses, through his cold and harsh eyes,
Were but weak jokes, a pale reflection,
Not slicing arteries, not unlocking true agony,

If you really want someone to love you
You should set aside making them happy
