PLAZA DES ALWAYS

everybody contracted lupus that year

and drank coffee shipped in

by bas jan ader

telemarketing was it

and so was everything else

just not to 

them
yet

and how they got it now

     finalemente

and wished for fresh kills

every day

*

/ nowadays they ring me up only
   to have their clairvoyancy
   confirmed /

*

prime suspect: over-dilligence

as appointed by a lamp post

selecting witnesses at mass

rate

before the judgment

light

and presence

and a couple of bankers from istanbul

sucking backgammon chips

from the curb

to defy the master trickery of

chewing gum

and holding on to currency

as they see fit

as gas stations

opt for concordance

before the meltdown

of play

altogether

smoking guns they say

seduce lovers

by daylight

on saturdays
