translucent
white
becomes
a
baroque
pearl
(alone)
in
the
mirror
as
she
fastens
the
platinum
necklace
an
anniversary
present
behind
her:
it
regains
transparency
a
primary
consition
of
Li
Ching
Chao's
naked
nipples.
I
raise
Chinese
mamoncillos
to
my
mouth,
bite
rind
(nipple)
suck
white
viscous
(nipple)
fruit
I
eat
three
meals
(not
certainly
in
sequence)
three
meals
three
languages:
shark
fin
soup.
Sliced
papaya
(drops
of
lime
juice).
Herring
in
brine
with
dill
and
onion.
I
fasten

three
times
a
day
(at
night
three
candles)
(printed

Wandering.
Reverberation.
I
receive
the
immanent
grace
of
Guadalupe
(Li
Ching
Chao)
turned
aside
the
middle
distance
the
(second)
condition
of
primordial
mercury:
transfixed
I'm
aware
(transcribe
it
here)
that
I've
left
on
the
beloved's
neck
the
(third)
trace
of
waterlily
(duckweed)
its
(snow-white)
skin
efflorescence
of
fish.

DIANE DI PRIMA ~
from Loba [She-Wolf]
(as her own fierce imagining of a female Coyote-like presence)
I am a shadow crossing ice
I am rusting knife in the water
I am pear tree bitten by frost
I uphold the mountain with my hand
My feet are cut by glass
I walk in the windy forest after dark
I am wrapped in a gold cloud
I whistle thru my teeth
I lose my hat
My eyes are fed to eagles & my jaw
is locked with silver wire
I have burned often and my bones are soup
I am stone giant statue on a cliff
I am mad as a blizzard
I stare out of broken cupboards

GERTRUDE STEIN ~
from Winning His Way
What is poetry. This. Is poetry.
Delicately formed. And pleasing. To the eye.
What is fame. Fame is. The care of. Their. Share.
And so. It. Rhymes better.
A pleasure in wealth. Makes. Sunshine.
And a. Pleasure. In sunshine. Makes wealth.
They will manage very well. As they. Please. Them.
What is fame. They are careful. Of awakening. The. Name.
And so. They. Wait. With oxen. More. Than one.
They speak. Of matching. Country oxen. And.
They speak. Of waiting. As if. They. Had won.
By their. Having. Made. A pleasure. With. Their.
May they. Make it. Rhyme. All. The time.
This is. A pleasure. In poetry. As often. As. Ever.
They will. Supply it. As. A measure.
Be why. They will. Often. Soften.
As they may. As. A. Treasure.
