Poem of the Day
Study of Children
By Asha Futterman
did you know
that you all work for me?
I asked them as a joke
did you know
that you all work for me?
I asked them as a joke
And the stitches on his head told us He suffered sitting still
Words were pure forms And were not secure
We shall see the deer as part of the trunks of the forest.
We shall see its antlers imitating the branches of the trees.
Here is the rock behind which she rose from the unpleasance of sea-foam.
The first day of the new year brings new additions to the public domain.
in a world the orange sun resets
it was all so strange and frightening that I wept for quite some time crying like I’d never cried before
it’s about time the stars & stripes & soda water start making love
I live every once in a while, mostly I hope that that trolley passes, that May turns into July
it’s impossible for me even to guess
since as they say
he really has no country of his own.
