Subversive Number 1

Subversive Poetry

To finish up the first issue of The Subversive with something odd and arty, here are a few short poems and prose poems I wrote on the plane on the way to Florida last week:

Untitled #1

Rows on rows,
like stacked sardines,
their easy chairs propel
them 'cross the heavens

*************************

Untitled #2

Running down the aisle,
the small boy
stops
to smile at a cloud

*************************

Untitled #3

The movie ends,
the watchers rise,
walking backward
in the skies.

*************************

Untitled #4

The pig on my plate,
in the form of ham,
in the skies over Texas,
unknowingly,
slides down my gullet,
an aerial fate,
as I ponder
that pigs CAN fly.

*************************

Untitled #5

Waves of air report against
the fragile silver shore,

Waves of grass remain embedded,
moving while they stay,

Riding high above the land,
yet standing on the floor,

Tricking time and bringing near,
the closing of the day
