Syntax Issue 10
Denver Syntax
{stargazer}
  luc simonic


did ya hear the song?
did it take ya away from
poetry and dump ya off
at the corner store?

did we listen to it
over & over & over
again, whilst the poems
rotted holes in the trunk?

the song has nothing
apocalyptic to it. it is set
in the VIP, and found in junk
yard salvage speakers.

I never came. would ya have
it any other way? she
said "you" poems can be
a much larger problem, so there.

I didn't stick it in. I did not
touch it. I never even spoke
to her. I had a wad of cash.
I still have it, and poems.

it rains on its own accord.
are ya drenched? she is
moving away from the "you"
poems. we are dry, itching.
