Sage Aug 2016
He opens up in incognito, he lets her know through broken text. The emotions he feels, the way that he talks easily depicts what she does for him. He doesn't want to see her, all he wants is same. She promised friendship but all he got was blame. She's showing off to him, she shows him bones that do not fit, but they were cheap and easy to find. He rests shaken, knowing that he was cheap and easy too.
Paul Hansford Nov 2016
heroes should be recognised at birth
which would save them the incon
venience of a firstname
that nobody will want to use,as for example

Voltaire now there was a guy;
less than h a p
p y with françois-marie arouet
as a handle(and who can
blame
him?)
he up and invented his own name
he would have invented God too
if God hadnt already
existed

or take Beethoven who
for all i know
might even have been God

or then again Picasso(who justifies(more than most)
his capital letter)
he really didnt need
the pablodiegojoséfranciscodepaula
     nepomucenomaríadelosremedios
          ciprianodelasantísimatrini­dadruiz
that he was lumbered with from birth

ok it's easy enough to make
    f  u  n    
of people with flatfish faces
both
éyès
on one side iaskyou
!
but who can look at faces the same
since he drew them that way(?)
and if people don't (real
ly) look like that
some of them
   jolly
     well
        ought
           to
(in the style of e e cummings, in case you didn't recognise it)
