the pumpkin tree; revisited
the pumpkin tree; revisited
the fruit of that fruitful tree is bathing me 1
in pulp, in fibers, in seeds, yellow and sticky. 2
with a postlithic device i punch out two eyes 3
in triangles, in angles for removal. 4
a grin as mad as blistering gin 5
scraggles under my hand. 6
the autumnal fruit, 7
this holiday on a beach; 8
the proxy for my governor, 9
this stand in for my head; 10
this thing cooking itself a sweet smell, 11
this constant coconspiritor to my seasons of empty bed. 12
