Space
The jewels were set off long ago as fireworks
The shoe or the sheer wonder of a shiver
Provided whatever light it could
While I provided harness for a knot-bun
Of bone, sinew, and statistical analysist
Torso of a man, head of a ram
And all the glory that flows from a doner's clone:
Rag and bone shop, call it whatever.
Having never truly loved it and never truly followed
I cannot say I have lost it, except in myself
I have failed to act on my desire and lost where I had acted
On the practice fields of imaginary private schools.

Time INT
I find it difficult to like or dislike appointments in INT.
They treat me so strangely there. They treat my body like a bag of meat
As they nudge it into the shapes it needs to be with a variety of well-used
Gear, some working some not, and a tucked shoulder, a forearm,
A thigh and the curl of one ankle to resemble the perfect awkward, where
They leave me for fifteen minutes. After that time, I hear in the headphones,
"Are you ready, Mr.

Sutro Tower
And here's one from Lori!
And if you ever thought there was a good reason Sutro Tower needs an official poem, you could start a petition! I know a candidate!
