Review of BBQ in the Southern United States
The room was suddenly rich and the great bay-window was
Spawning snow and pink roses against it
Soundlessly collateral and incompatible:
World is suddener than we fancy it.
World is crazier and more of it than we think,
Incorrigibly plural. I peel and portion
A tangerine and spit the pips and feel
The drunkenness of things being various.
And the fire flames with a bubbling sound for world
Is more spiteful and gay than one supposes -
On the tongue on the eyes on the ears in the palms of one’s hands -
There is more than glass between the snow and the huge roses.
Every night when I go to sleep, I secretly wish to wake to 1 of 3 scenarios:
1) I live in a futuristic country under fascist rule and I am part of an underground resistance. The work is difficult and dangerous, but it is satisfying. I am deadly.
2) Zombie apocalypse.
3) I live in New York, I am an English professor, and I travel to other countries to film funny things, sad things, wonderful things, and awful things to bring the rest of the world’s attention to away from itself and to help people expand their perspectives.
All 3 would be awesome…or overwhelming….
The first one is my most heartfelt desire. Like, it makes me giddy. Kind of sick, huh?
In all this talk of time
Talk is fine
But I don’t want to stay around
Why can’t we pantomime, just close our eyes
And sleep sweet dreams
Me and you with wings on our feet?
Trusting my instincts from now on.

Dear Alaska, you are beautiful.
