in a short time writ dauncen
denoting the frenciscan letters
scolded frowning
studies in France wasting away
language retired
troubadour salesmen sailing
on a grifter’s salary
la grande nation calling heritage
triad chimes
a tepid and soiled affair calling
the small nugget
all one-piece garments a day
in writ, becomingly
in taste and in height coming home
for tranquilizers
soil of beaten Earth’s dregs a language
of buried feet
made of wood and sword-smiths
of your cigarette gold
does not talk, shutters should be open
bearing leaves
gliders of romance era first religions
for generations
