collection plate blues (slight return)



Anecdotal reflex:



scriptural process,

spurious juvenalia,

functional abnormality,

referenced hedonism.



Method advertising.



Ordinary items kept inside,

kept indoors,

here and now

where the window's cold.



Untenable ambivalence,

a drawer full of onions,

one dimension revealed.



Just for a minute.



Here.



It's for you.



Cells for the microscope,

my box full of slides

equates lies

while insanity feigned

invites

genuine articles.



It's OK, it happens.



The sage recommendation holds:



hate hypocrisy

and walk away from evil,

if you would

be wise.



More worth should be obtaining

here,

less worthless explaining,



less explaining some worth.



I'm blue as a favor,

and blues

is a flavor.



My favorite

flavor.
