Improv: Rodney Jones ‘A Defense of Poetry”

She speaks in abstract quoted philosophy
And governs by committee the
Lost self, semitraded six-shooter of ideas and babble a river of dead moles.
She has no patience for poetry
Or the way I rest my head on her tall stomach while we watch.
Black chandelle where the water was slows your brain as she touched my head.
Chinaberry tree.
