SHOW ME

SHOW ME

let me out
show me
the door

or better,
draw me a window
where I can see
all those things that poems
are supposed to
be full of

Nature like a garden
a garden like Nature

streams whose murmuring
remind you this house
you have entered is
pure sound has
been constructed
out of words,
beautiful
words

a synonym for
these strange,
cryptic squiggles

PASTORAL

I have
a flair
for interior
design (née
decorating)

look — we put
a lake
here, a
few trees there

now you
are already thinking
pastoral. Half
way to
utopia.
