He has five children I m papa	A
to a hundred pencils	B
I bought the chair he sat in	C

his faith he s a man	O

who can think honey glazed ham	P
and act out the thought	Q
with plastic or bills We sat	R

I stared at my hands he stared	S
at the wall staring at my hands	T
I said other things	U

about the excellent work he d done	L

the roller coaster thoughts	X
of an oscilloscope All this time	Y
I saw the eyes of his wife	Z

which had always been brown	A2
like almonds but were now brown	A2
like the crust of bread We walked	B2

to the door I shook his hand	C2
felt the bones pretending	D2
to be strong On his way home	E2

there was a happy song	F2
because de Sade invented radio	G2
the window was open he saw	H2

delphinium but couldn t remember	F
the name I can only guess	I2
Maybe at each exit	J2

that could have led his body	K2
to Tempe to Mars he was tempted	L2
to forget his basketball team	M2
	-
of sons or that he ever liked	N2
helping his wife clean carrots	O2
the silver sink turning orange	P2

Running s natural to most animals	B
who aren t part	Q2
of a lecture series on Nature s	I2

Dead Ends When I told him	R2
I saw he was looking for a place	S2
in his brain to hide	T2
	-
his brain I tried that later	F
with beer it worked until I stood	U2
at the toilet to make my little	V2
	-
waterfall and thought of him	R2
pushing back from a bar	F
to go make the same noise	W2
