Mischief And Repose



The Story of Ferdinand, Fictional and Far Away

If only I could be Ferdinand,
and sit here
quietly
smelling the flowers
there would be a single
cork tree in an empty pasture
and I would sit there
not feeling
lonesome in the breeze
or anguish in the sweat of droplets
no fuze
no short circuits
not a machine of a human
but the patience of a Spanish fictional bull.
