How to Bend


Patio furniture, plastic
and filthy, assists

pedagogy’s colonoscopy
always in the airport,

according to the sluggish melodrama
Triumvirate Purloins Lemonade.


*

Elevator shaft’s blue rain
bends the cover

of the how-to manual.
How to what?

*

“I’m a kid, too,” I want
to shout, in complicitous foreboding,

backstage on a small lunar shallop.
And we will consider it a pleasant experience. .
