Consummate Cos Organic

with- 
in 
 
its 
cool
 
leafy 
green 
heart 
like 
 
to 
think 
 
there 
are 
two 
spotted 
 
red 
and 
black 
lady 
bugs 
out
 
making
pure 
whoopee.

Shakespearean Wordplay

Analogy resembles 
 
A world bespoken, 
Made-to-order, incomparable 
To compare, say incarnadine
 
Lest we should flesh out 
Those bloody incongruous 
Seas of filth abiding us there.

Unfinished Business

Left to my own 
Faulty devices, I find 
 
What I no longer have 
Any need of keeps 
 
Lagging behind, reminding 
Me of what it is 
 
I am missing— 
A friend in need.

Archilochos And The Nymph Neobulé

Some Parian nonentity was strutting 
In the agora today with my ravishing 
NeobulĂ©—I had to leave her unquenched, 
Still on fire down by a bush 
Near a brook and ran off 
Babbling when the struggle 
Got hot and way out of hand— 
Somehow, saving my shaft seemed 
More precious, I mean where 
Could I find another 
One equally cool, 
Whiplike and long?
