Pound Laundry Selections

What is the light?

Master of words and spells

shoals

Blue in Theran murals

That conscience and consciousness two words

The Blessed Suso

Past and Present Unto this last

Above all avoid vagueness

Dante was his Virgil

Zarathustrans and genealogists

A fine bitter tongue onto him

Not words set to music

During the war to end all wars

The gang over at New Masses

And that one’s problem?

Given all this time

So the three of them

Redactor

in the fall

Mnemosyne his true Penelope

Poets lovers lunatics

Tales out of school

Washed up

Flotsam and jetsam

eye to eye

Radiant instances radio corpses

Theory given the lie

What are you, box?

By the dead comedian’s grave

Maybe it was Aristophanes

Coda: After the Thermal Devices
