POEMS FOR ALIENS, A PARTIAL GUIDE TO EARTH Nos 6 & 7

6. PAIN

a hurt
of sore
agony

we assume
ends at death



7. MONEY

minimum wage
maximum wage

and all the rage in between

most ALL of it
most NONE of it

and all the rage in between

DREAM ANNEX

this morning is another country

i suspect a silent coup
or 
creeping transient borders

i declared something in the night

something
newly
contraband

subsequently
i was searched by dreams

and
i
wake
up

sore 

wondering
if salt and vinegar
still
come
in 
blue ?
