after Girls Overheard While Assembling a Puzzle
are you sure the full sun is good for
baby’s breath? I’m almost certain I’ll
cry when the day
dies. Isn’t it funny that I was looking for
Easter lily and found
fleabane instead? This soil is the red of
Goldenrod, except goldenrod
hasn’t a hint of red.
I don’t see why we can’t
just be worms, here, without our bikinis,
kidding, just joking, he kissed me
like a baby’s breath, here. You feel that? This
mouthful of us feels
nice, like white orchids
on sky. What is this? You mean this
Plough? It isn’t a carriage for
Queens, but the blades sure are
royal enough for me. I
say we visit Southampton
tomorrow. Isn’t Long Island the shape of
U? Such
Velvet. So
Wild. Like Mulberry.
X-plain all the
yesses I never said to you. Say
zilch.
