Fauxku Choo Choo (the play's the thing)

[rayheinrich]

    the toll's been paid -
    the bartender grins
    while the ferryman
    steers towards Paradise
   

    the cat steers towards the tuna salad
    on little cat paws
    i push the cat out the door with my foot
    paradise lost
   


    Eliot / Frost - fog

    Prufrock and Fog were published around the same time, so I don't think either one
    had an affect on the other. All sorts of quiet things get compared to others.  
    I bet the Greeks beat Eliot and Frost to it and ancient religious texts beat the Greeks.


     a church mouse
    quiet as fog
    sits looking
    over the harbor
   
    on silent haunches
    a cat grabs it and eats it
   
    then somewhere
    a pin drops
