165

GO ON

When I was born
The prejudice against the young
The first thing remembered.
I explained imaginary numbers
To my negative friend.
Seltzer novices
Blew off speaking slightly somewhere else,
Amazed to be gasping
By the headlights of vans.
Bits of tinsel
Revealed atmospheric twinges.
Rubbery corroboration.
