THE NEW YORK TIMES

The New York Times daily
and a barrel of apples
with one pear in the
middle. Yes, and black
and white photography.
The demands of my bloodline,
but after the blood
dries it leaves a bruise.

Also include tango music
and tango dancers. Boring
documentaries and home
made films. All mechanics
need not apply.

After the speech ended the
room sat quiet. Learn a
thing or two about the world.
It was an average day.

Continue on, continue on
with banana peels. The
woman who collects
The New York Times says
nothing but ser joven,
ser joven. And even
still there are candy
wrappers and love letters
glued to the inside cover.

Billie Holiday, Che Guevara
on the wrong side of
the commanded. I go
swimming at night.
How disjointed. Blood is
beautiful if it reflects
right. It's purpose is
to be disjointed.

Purple elephants and wooden
shoes, but most importantly
The New York Times daily
