DLTK's Poems
Snow
The room was suddenly rich and the great bay-window was
Spawning
snow and pink roses against it
Soundlessly collateral and
incompatible:
World is suddener than we fancy it.
World is
crazier and more of it than we think,
Incorrigibly plural. I peel and
portion
A tangerine and spit the pips and feel
The drunkenness of
things being various.
And the fire flames with a bubbling sound
for world
Is more spiteful and gay than one supposes -
On the
tongue on the eyes on the ears in the palms of one's hands -
There is
more than glass between the snow and the huge roses.
