the carpenter said nothing but

O Oysters,' said the Carpenter,
You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?'
But answer came there none —
And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one."

canoodle playfully, crazily, or not

You know, woozy, half woke-up. And, with that, it felt/feels completely likeable, warm and evocative of a world where people move in and out of space and each other and don’t yank themselves different in the doing so.

Easy ebullient intimacy, I suppose, is what I’m saying. Or close enough.

in my mouth the tea


the parking lot is

crowded and I stand

rattling my keys the car

is empty as a bicycle


what are you doing now

where did you eat your

lunch and were there

lots of anchovies it
