The 3rd Man

    after an idea from Tony Towle

Why are some poets always jerking off
onto the page, or somewhere else we can
see them? At least writing in this book,

on the train, i need one hand to hold
the book....i walk along some Utopia
Parkway in my mind & collect things, in-

ferences & notions. How easy to look at
a poem & say "Hey a poem i can make
poems too—i'm inspired." Little viles & bits

of blue found along the Antelope Freeway,
or where ever, Berlin, Prague, Vienna

"Sight makes a glass box."—G. Stein
