The sun the moon the stars the polar ice caps
and the ice cream cones the city streets the
side streets and the small tv the curve of
flesh around the food the road maps and
November and the tiny birds and also certain
people and they loved the special chairs and
also stuffed things and the carnival and big
rings and the o rings and they loved the
oranges in bags and florida and texas and the

onramp and the way that people called and
the natural forces of destruction and the sea
they loved the sea and also boats and sailing

varieties and then they loved the choice of
drinks to drink and also beer they loved
the times that others liked them that they loved

tapirs and they loved the zoo.

that I love as I love of
its songs in its longing
