from _19 lines_

an anthology im reading...

by kevin davies
_the golden age of paraphernalia_:

*

If it isn't sex
why are we thinking about it?

*

If it isn't food
why are we thinking about it?

*

If it looks like a poem, it's a restraining order.

*

So what kind of artist were you
before you became the worker you are now?

*

The neighbour cat has elaborate
aesthetic responses to weather.
I would stake Robert Creeley's life on such assumptions.

*
Mansion, yacht, and high-powered friends.
I woke yet again in a parking lot with graffiti on my ass.
Remarks are literature.
