At Six O'Clock When the sun shines the blinds split the light filtered for morning coffee a green lemon is not sour is it possible that your boyfriend rings you just before you are about to pee sandals woven with Tibetan beads sarongs golden with silk threads you toss them out in a Jaguar piss can we cut the maniacal from the diabolical shredding the cabbage for a midnight potluck you count the pieces one for yer one for yer none for the Australian kangaroo whose tracks you forgot to look up in the big book last night it was all funky and pink everyone brings drinks hack the pickle pouring tons of alarmingly shiny droplets gilded guilt draining into tin abysses you cannot compensate fur for blood cashmere doesn't cut it anymore it's never quite Balsamic drizzling into the desert of Onah you name your salad.
