The head barked in a chair
bristles of not wanting
to loose your feet in the window
of vision, invisible thumbs
and flowers
falling loosely from your teeth
stubble and blinding light
dotted indirectly over
the i's
Hole Fluff
The heavy fluff of popcorn
balls written on the
window glass
blurried like a hair
in a bang
was a faucet open
over the sill
spritzing against plastic
without holes
Stacey Allam: At 13 I came home from school and listen to partridge family records and david cassidy records. Now at age 57 I come home from work and listen to partridge family david cassidy records and wonder why in between that time theres been a 28year marriage a 26 years old daughter and a 24 year old son that are definitely more than afterthoughts. That just about says it all.
