On Spare Land
Wormwood
rank grass
kids’ dens: the entire
little essay.
Commons without commoners
the Unadopted. A footpath
worn
from corner to corner.
Wormwood.
And how at the edge the
hoardings
paralyse words high up
in the common air.
John Cage
on a bland enough midwestern
campus:
– use random means
to set coordinates then
hang around at the intersection
all day if need be. There’ll
be something to interest you!
