Ditti Bop

We watched those birds
carry the fireman up and away.

The heavens are lofty
when you're in them.

Thunderbolts are figments
of the human condition.

Watch the figs get eaten,
the child thinking sugar.

Our bodies are more water
than hair or teeth or skin.

Atonement of the caterpillar
another giant leap for non.

Beside the carriage a name
the letters only gold when lit.

One rusted bullet dreams
it was just a nail or toe.

I calmed the ocean falling asleep
and woke up hearing Mozart.

Bromst will keep you awake
but fully functional actually.

Reading one line from Patrick White:
double adverb power: suddenly icily.

The only vivisector
is the one Lawnmower Man.

You better move over Red Rover--
we've sent the bird flu right over.

After a while crocodile
lost all of his teeth to caramel.

this reminds me of A. Berrigan's work which makes sense.
