Smalltown Agonist |
DAVID (lying there chewing in bed |
A string knotted about his neck): |
Ginger pleading |
Given over to His Friends |
Who choose for her everything |
He would want them to do |
Everything around in circles |
And some things even seeming to |
Drying up on their sides |
Roomer: |
Or slowly coming to grips |
With being grabbed by the lips |
David: |
Ginger thinking flies — |
Nurse: |
All green within |
David: |
— Ginger seeing flies take off |
Just to land — |
Nurse: |
All pale with go |
David: |
— On her wholewheat baby body — |
Nurse: |
A whistling echo |
David: |
— An isolated thread |
Tied to face blood |
Some socialist stationwagon solution |
Doctor: |
Mastering whims in the meadow |
Or in hotels next to men |
Who own them |
Packed so tightly in their skins |
Roomer: |
Hear the crowd to words |
Feel the arrogance to solutions |
Scream the loss in situations |
David: |
Ginger bites them |
To isolate qualities |
Before they got ignored |
She’d close her eyes |
While opening up the door |
And waste no costly muscles guessing |
By biting anyone on the bathroom floor |
Therapist: |
Day after day after day |
David: |
Making dogs |
Nurse i: |
E pluribus unum |
David: |
Making do |
Nurse ii: |
E pluribus unum |
Nurse i: |
E pluribus unum |
Nurse ii: |
E pluribus unum |
David: |
Making money |
Nurse i: |
E pluribus unum |
'Orchestra' |
Little pony soldier |
For whom time |
Is the mind of the universe |
Backing up to park on him |
David: |
Selling nude photographs |
Of Joe DiMagio |
