2 pomes

Post by Artguy » August 22nd, 2008, 10:58 pm

Pome 1

Cement trucka goliath thumpa
Wumpa
Street car a clatter
Whira ping
Old broken human
On antique wheelchair
Up & down beaten block
Rainy swishinga
Shlumpa
Street all gray
Dampa dank
Sewer smell stew
13 steps above the subterranean
Gallery
Images of meditations
Empty A
Escaped from mind
To
Old cramping
Handa
Squinted eyes
A brown
Red squeezed out
White all runny
Drip a drops
Blopa Plopa
Fighting with whooshing
Chattering street
Rythming Thelonious Monk did that
13 gray steps up to hope
Edit as I go
No longer "I"
As I've gone
As I sita
Mope

Pome 2

I make my own
Negotiations with
Senses reaching
Sent left behind
Perfume from
Woman in the gallery
Hard mottled gray
Cut seams in concrete
Gallery floor
Soft chalk white
To hang paintings on
Gallery walls
Whirring swoosh
Clang clatter chatter
Sounds from the street
Weight of steel
Huge pine beams
10' ceiling
Above my mind
Bill Evans trio
Percussing bass
Swoosh brushing cymbals
Babbling brook piano
This pome
Ink falling freely
Pen between my fingers

sounds like my home town, the unsettled economic stew of it.
it is being torn down and rebuilt, and i can't hear it like before.
'cement trucka goliath thumpa'. so many of them all at once..
