from Surf's Up
I look in the men's room mirror at a man and his blood thinner.
Why it's you, Eliquis, dear friend!
I see myself for a fleeting second looking like someone else.
I like the tiny Cartier watch the fellow's wearing.
I remember when he was once in Tahiti.
Lift me off the ground, mighty Ezra Pound!
Why it's you, Eliquis, dear friend!
I see myself for a fleeting second looking like someone else.
I like the tiny Cartier watch the fellow's wearing.
I remember when he was once in Tahiti.
Lift me off the ground, mighty Ezra Pound!
Sing me your lyrical skunk spray of Cantos.
Robert Lowell, I will join you soon.
I remember DVF's enchantment apartment in the Rue de Seine.
I remember Mumbai when it was Bombay.
I remember DVF's enchantment apartment in the Rue de Seine.
I remember Mumbai when it was Bombay.
England – where the English are –
Used to smile with bad English teeth in the toxic coal-fire air.
It was the London of T.S. Eliot,
St. Louisan and expatriate,
Who found love late.
Who found love late.
– Frederick Seidel (2018)
