The New Sensibility

30.1.08

((Bone Park))





A tick crests
in north Atlanta.,
struck, shunned, and delayed
by the battery.

Sue Jay Dublé,
kept above the lobby
on a doomed reconnaissance,
died near Lennox.

This was the effigy:
"All was known to the tee,
But SJD was
Crushed by the battery."

To the east,
the bone Park,
cozy with taught forms
laquered by death storms,
took her in.

A sad compost begins her fission.
Stunned, they do not stay,
Touting their set black fashion.

25.1.08

((4000 AD))




The ocean seaped
over the photographs
featuring her,
sitting on a swing.

Trees and shrubs
grew up around the swing,
guarded on all sides
by little houses.
