What are the right naming words
To resolve the paradox
That lifeless language outlives
The bristlecone pines it names,
Explains, romanticizes?
A nurse sings an ancient air,
Voices an ancient compleynt
On verse, on all poetry—
I just don’t get it. It sucks.
It doesn’t mean anything.
If you’ve got something to say ,
Just say it. Poetry sucks.
Sorry. That’s just what I think.
She shrugs and scans a wristband,
Then administers the meds.
