Al FRESCO CAFÉ POEMS #27
Cozy ones
Discuss
The historical shape
Of the Cross,
A T,
A geometric skinny phallic symbol,
Or
Something like
DaVinci’s diagram
Of a man with outstretched arms in a circle.
Cozy ones
Discuss the shapes
Of shadows
Such cross shapes make.
Others
Advanced beyond coziness and copy books
Into a condition
That has a satisfactory content
Of posing
As a cabellero
Skipping out of a cabaña
To a cabaret
While jugging cabbages
Never
Discuss Crosses,
Or the shapes of their shadows.
