Namaste, all.

Yelp is a fun & easy

way to find that the

official web site for

inputs used in inter-

state sales out of

Kerala is a low-power

television station

licensed to a

nun living in sin

in Garfield, Texas.

locale

Precis a place by its

skyline. In this case

microwave & water

towers, the smokestack

of the sugar mill, the

elegant but dated shape

of the old pump station,

in its current iteration

sitting idle as a simple

sign post for the stacks

of fertilizer & gravel &

sand that lurk beside it.

From the Pound Cantos: CENTO XXXV

Flame leaps from the hand, the

rain is listless. The backswell now

smooth in the rudder chains. Ply

over ply, thin glitter of water

quiet in the buff sands. Topaz,

I manage, & three sorts of blue.

Souls stained with recent tears —

first ill fate & then abundant wine.

The talks ran long in the night

& many things were set abroad

& brought to mind. Wherever the

speech crept, there was mastery,

an ear for the sea-surge. In the half-light,

mead & then sweet wine.

For Martin Edmond

Much more

cuckoo-

looking than the

male, with

its  / barred tail

& brindled

body, 

a

female koël

moves rapidly 

from branch

to branch in the

large tree which,

incidentally, has

just come into

flower, 

a

fact that is of 

no import to 

the bird, even 

though, judging 

by the attention 

given her by the 

two male koëls 

that alternatively

trace or try to

anticipate her

movements, she 

is in much

the same state.

Trapped in the ballet barre

Claiming to have more

than enough expertise

to transform the

marketing potential

of the space available on

the inner t-shirt into

venture capital, a

consortium of lentils

& lean beef has launched

a so-called “lads’ magazine”

which examines the

spiritual & therapeutic

benefits of taking

retreats into metaphysical

darkness whilst wearing

only flimsy underwear
