                     too much in arrival

                     was it the sun-washed
                     matching placemats in
                     the café conservatory

                     or the sharp linger of
                     nervous armpit (not
                     mine) the coffee or the

                     eighty mile drive here
                     that make it impossible
                     to relax my forehead?

                                King of the World

                                in the cabin out
                                in the hills

                      the machine fires
                      and hums with wavy needles

                                safe
                      with the oranges and yellows
                      and the valley of dark before me

                                I talk to the world

                                          street

            Have browses while walking past
            Have pushes the fully-equipped buggy
                      before her talks with her friend
            Have listens to his friend by
                      Taking A Drink of Coke
            Have pulls the Boyfriend’s arm
                      up over her head and smiles
                      with it on her shoulder
            Have slightly touches her tongue to the sweet sore of her top lip
                      then slightly scoops her head like a giraffe forward quickly
