SISTERS
First make the mouthpiece classic .
so that my passionate Spanish sister
will take some lessons Take her out of hand
&
blow her into the palm of the world
Put a date into the palm of the world
it's her birthday
ripe palm age
to
come so wise
to
words
it needn't be a question of how handsome she is
Accept the apologies of the sisters
*
Sister Solitude has another sister
whose got a punch you won't forget
or more into until earth abandons mitts
to summer Summer gives a fast speech
covering the earth with a plant
*
One descends from the mittor
to
take
the prize
the other sends out a message
to
resemble youth
waddling away
They are my sisters both Since he is not
sufficiently paid
attention
to
let him go out the door backwards
my sisters say
they are so cruel.
