When Golden Saxophones Abound
Listening to Van Morrison
while grading papers
on a cold gray afternoon
is almost perfect—the slow, sure
unwinding--I swear, you could
almost reach heaven doing taxes
if you were playing
“I’m Not Feeling It Anymore,”
the BBC Four Sessions.
Um. Come On.
Red brick nights.
Cool blue moons.
Life shouldn't,
I say, life shouldn't be
staplers
and paper
thin
dreams

I really enjoyed the ease of Red brick nights and Cool blue moons and the insistence that life should more than staplers and flimsy paper. Dreams defy documentation.
