                                               WRITERLY  IBERIA

                                descending flocks gathering in insomniac alleys

                              percussionist sonorists playing in amnesiac valleys

                                   excommunicating Ovid from roughly sentences     

                                              keeping memories in silvers rivers whites

                                                                undisplayed profane in what is

                                                                                                  nearly done

                                                  flute what it flows follows to few

                                                      panasteroids semata made of smoke

                                                               inphemeral arts phatic or visual

                                                                     shades parts of vision

                                                                               halves disputed

                                      lino  lands  improper mirror holding eyes

                                             land  certificates  of an abstract nation

                                                crossing  “I”s   &  “I’ d”s  here & there

                                                 bi-Sapphic odes with ends unfixed.
