INVISIBLE POEM #14

This immaculate framing of the object
Corners the market thereby paying
For someone's descendants to behave
Badly enough to need the lawyers they
Can also afford

Meanly I stare into my anxious
"Alex, can you see the highway"
Parachute glasses and
This is where mishearing comes in
To its fortune and loving becomes
Livelihood as opposed to misconstrued dream

Such thoughts are like having a dog
Skidding around in the apartment above

O my fallible permission
That we have been sponsored
Means nearly nil to longrun freaks
