the little old lady looks pissed
and the ice pops are green
i like your big loose skirt
how my hand disappears
as you choose our breads

there is an illustrated lecture on retrograde later
and the invisible part of me grows dark      disappears
more curlique questionmarks
wafting from sausage carts
no!     in 60s pop there is light too

fuck it     pop the bubbly
go for the floorboard
there is light in certain paintings there is light
in singlemindedness in picking a piece of fruit

that lady knew some famous painter
she was so out of place at the show
and then i show up with big beers

light in green ice
there is light in the light that falls into you
