to WCW (I)-
after all that writing
I
am disappointed
you couldn’t work
through the mystery of gender
as you did the rose and pink
locust // the poet
revolution of stateside idiom
sunny forever before
by the woodthrush and ever after
in the act of brushstroke
details of red winter hat blue
in it the devil // in you the missing rune
Ehwaz and a bush in bloom
women are not so different
you were simply addicted
. . I know something
about it in
a different way than you
could have // if you
could have watched porn scrolled
through tinnitus inducing
sixsecondvidoes
maybe you would have
come
to a different conclusion // sister memories
of greeny asphodel // if you are a poet
and a shadow in the silly world of history
then so too a wan or woman
Italicized lines are taken from the poetry of William Carlos Williams
