Selections from the Crow and Benjamin Letters

by Jessica Wickens

Crow - sounds like The World We Don’t Live In 

from this view/ doesn't everything?

 

my vigilance betrays me

 

insect love is not fair or fathomable

 

destiny/debunked

 

the light is constant

 

is this the rudest chorus? the tabernacle

shifts on its sand.

homesick for the unknown. 

 

phosphorous/ doctors send their news

by pony. oh how we ache for both

/all the new and the old.

Crow - we have to ask, eventually will these matters matter - marsupial, the man-horse-hay, chocolate egg, idolatry, beach ball, dribbling into sanity w/o sense for love or quality, maybe. under chin to paw. drooling on one's tail, for instance. it's the same but easier, finally, to joke in the locker room. muffle these lights in silence. for now, our orbits are strong. lazy mouth, miracle canyon, let's ride.

crow,

 

imagine the world

singing from the balcony

if this cannot be done

without hesitation

simply find a way out of the box

 

I merely know but I have many

songs, by slow stages I build

nests of neckties

my heart shuffles and i dream they

already know me well

 Dearest Crow,

 

earth tips toward water

the perfect ending remade with hot flour and water

where has the door gone

what fond farewell of lipstick and rye could cast a shadow there?

 

I try so hard to resist

these riddles but Crow

teaching dies slow and stubborn

shall I speak to you in hymn, chant and prayer

or infant babble

my visual brain's all worked up, popping,

you're better off just plugging in than to chase the fresh air

 

Yours,

 

B

When I was young, I always like to play some online games, now think it is a waste of life. But now the Internet, I would pay more attention to your thoughts and life, as it is now for me at home drinking coffee and smoking a cigar at your article
