TELL ME
tell me
tell me
more more more
about that blue guitar
the Picasso painting one
upon which you
changed everything
writing this classical
exposition in and between
risk and damage
reports
a mountain of which
already in
your out tray
and me too
did spend time
in the insurance industry
but was thrilled beyond measure
to hear
that there is a music
so powerful it is
antithesis to same
and Emperor of Ice Cream
what can you
tell me
about this
the statistics that went into
its exact calculations
every day spent
in the underwriting office
filling my pockets
with stolen office slips
the reverse sides of which
scribbled with phrases
images (not even
lines) things
I was kind of hoping
one day,
magically
might (my finale of seem)
turn into poetry
poems 2 die for
