Lectures On Seppuku
So for only one night with nurses and sombreros
Only for the good of my country, before I blacken the tea pot
After or behind what with which you yelled from the brown field. A mule
Buried your company’s mirror
Bringing out or the hope chests you drag across the kitchen floor to Hollywood.
Close your eyes and doors on nurses who wither short from brandied diets
Court-ordered and herein lies the difference: a flame a foundry your collection of hard-working Her stars
And the viper serving petite-fours.
You enter into an agreement listening for dazed trumpeters leaning or dozing against haystacks.
Your if you’re in the desert and vote your hand falls off, banging your knee
The lamentable cries of wolves and jewelers
And of the dazed sous-chef burning his tongue on his mother’s cooking.
Lazy, shutting his eyes slowly, he has had a bad day. Dazed yard workers lobbed bricks
And the comptroller flew off in a rage. Dazed, he walked old and past the baklava.
