Threnodies for Schizophrenic Seas

Schizophrenic Trees/ a storm

Scorpio Weather Cult/ who walked all night with their shoes full of blood on the showbank docks waiting for a door in the east river to open to a room full of steamheat and opium

Supermarket Goods Escape and Terrorize Local Shoppers/ and rose to build harpsichords in their lofts

A Sea Shanty For Staten Island Ships/ holy the solitudes of skyscrapers and pavements!

The War Diary/ and photographs of a flying steamboat pilot

Nostalgia Poem for Deep Sea Forest/ who jumped off the brooklyn bridge

Wall Street Gas Panic/ who were burned alive in their innocent flannel suits on madison avenue

Dawn in New York has Four Columns of Mire/ and a hurricane of black pigeons splashing in the putrid waters

Dying Planet Sends Christmas Message to Earth/ whose soul is electricity and banks!

Mariner Dirge/ who were great writers on the same dreadful typewriter in the the western night
