OF THE ALWAYS Part Nine



Equivalence is all—

find something you’re equal to
and sleep with it

where else could dreams come from
or come true?

And when I say you it’s art I mean
who else would put up with my prattle?


You were on an island in the Indies
reluctant to be
                                      O be there not

but it’s hard to leave
a place you aren’t really at.
