With a Pie and a Sad Luck Story

When yesterday happened a singular mood swept the room.
I had been walking down Elm road lower than the elms,
but when no one was lingering with a pie and a sad luck story
I came in and picked up the tinsel.  Stephen was telling a story,
"Do you know what a Brahman is?  A Brahman is a very good
and gentle kind of man who lives in India and who treats
all beast as if they were his brothers.  There is a great deal
to know about Brahmins but that is enough for the story."
I had once crooned with my setter over an instinctive
loneliness but that was about all I could muster from my unborn
penmanship.  I 'd thought I'd head for home, but the house
snuck off to Long Island.  The afternoon survives but
becomes a darker representation of itself.

Marked for Love

Look you Marked for love What pants What sweater  What blue space Next to star What wars Do we bang On what rocks To kiss finally Summer Bud...
