SQUIRREL CLIMBING

 

 

a squirrel climbing

                a tree in fright

                     seems

     to have more sense

than a thousand words

                in a desolate sea

                        of letters and words

          and flamboyant

               literary posturing

 

the dreams of Aphrodite were soiled

                by mortal clinging

           as poets lose their way

              in this modern strife

of a new world gone mad
