MIPOESIAS VOLUME 24, ISSUE 1 ~ JANUARY 2011 David Krump Account 17


If it is morning, it's morning and the idiot should have woken me.


A triumph, a book and one crayon. Just one crayon, one waterglass drawn


when my father died, I said yes it'll get worse. Engine parts


and accoutrements toward bad boxes. Heartache. Bearings.


Morning number nine and the damned fish keeps crying, overflows


forest stump, bracken bees, bugs. You know rollerskating girls?


Please tell me you know and go off as weeping groomsmen


holstering clean revolvers. Something's done.
