Three Poems

AREN’T WE ALWAYS

Body part
And whole
What it is
Senses typing
The itch moves
Just enough to
Joke it laugh
Line could go
Fingers mind
Stink a little
Stand up
Out of habit

DIAGONALS ALWAYS

we've passed

If we can can a book a place,

relentless linearity: one sign [space after colon]

refridgerator (sp)

approachs (sp)

even if it (for "it it")

SUITE SIXTEEN

It takes two
times two

times two
times two, etc.

to be in
the company of

one.
