1732

Deep stone
I like to think about you
With the same television mind
That enjoys baseball, dirty talk,
And the comfort of predictable forms.

That I think
Is the heart
Of all debate --
Do you want
To feel safe
Or do you want
To feel alive.

Ideally I want new wave and the truth,
The stone
And the city wave after wave
Of overlapping hucksters
Slap together
Counting on the stone
To be their doormat.
