little flower
preoccupied with finance &
theater
else with ordinary vessels
a cup or can or shoe
in a field of rye where the
question
which is most beautiful
is obsolete
in its own myth
cured in the malevolent fact of
thinking
crushed into a whole
in the very eye of night
the owl in the wood
or the word
in the wood
the work
of the world
& the work
of the word
the owl in the world
or the woman
in the owl
