poem: icarus days
uncertain farms
fuzzy taco train tracks up
& down the jelly highways
vagabond tumeric infernal
rondo: i ask at the window
the answers say no, as
if the delectation is ribbed
beyond belief,
a casual dress day all
down the six, the seven,
the eight ways of pity,
your western elegance
fights down the need
to wander, to vary
the myths and posters
of icarus days
angling with fortitude best
left unmade: watching
the lines piss away
the wherewithals,
the snaffer blooms,
the quenched beasts in their
Trojan replicas -
save the fifth place ribbons
for itty bitty classtime,
i've called round
the green tangents,
you've gone round the bend
we've digitized the very best.

I love that the label is vichyssoie!! It just provides that exclamation point to a delightful outflow!! Icarus days when one flies too high and gets burned with fifth place.
The juxtaposition of Trojan and itty-bitty brought up some interesting mental pictures... best left unsaid on a family blog.
And I have to wonder WHY the tacos are fuzzy? Producing penecillin? So spicy that your vision is blurry with tears?
But you have indeed digitized the very best, so vichyssoise to you, bro!!
well, farming is an uncertain business and most of us feel our wings singed at least once or twice. Vichyssoise, though, is not such a bad prize for a fifth place ribbon. I'll take mine with a side of that vagabond infernal rondo -- sounds interesting. Good times here, every green tangent...
Teresa: Family blog? (:-D)
Those fuzzies come via North Tejana Cindy, who was lusting for access to her Fuzzy Taco Shoppe during this past week's wintry taco-depriving storm.
Anno: Uncertain Farms is the name of a local salsa purveyor, introduced to me by friend John, via a Facebook picture. If nothing else, we at least know that The Social Network is good for poetry prompts . . .
I can see a little of that rondo in the paella.
