Our first and last walk uphill was for possession of two yellowing plums, she said. No, two brown flowers, he said. Okay. Two Brown Flowers. We climbed slowly toward the house of destiny. No,no, the temple of chance. The other direction two stones rolled downhill, she said. Billiard balls. They were billiard balls, he said. Oh yes, I recall. It was exactly then, that I made fun of your sunburn, she said and dropped the plums, he said. When you made so much out of nothing. -M. Yakich

SUN SCREEN



The size of what I know does not blow
Up enough to redeem the inadequacy of this

Moment where I can be seen
Seeming complete as a photograph is finished and hides

Everything, well not everything but so
Much of what I meant the moment it was taken

You have plenty of time is what everybody says, the stupidest
Thing I've ever heard

I don't even fucking
Have time to write this right now

My scythe
Flashing in the dark

My love
Rotting on the vine

- A. Reines, Mercury

I'M SUPPOSED TO BE WRITING A SYLLABUS. INSTEAD I'M READING this AND LISTENING TO this.
