WHO'S WILDER, WHO'S MORE MYSTICAL?

This little three month old person sitting in front of you watching the fire

her bald head concentrated

her long fingers holding the white sides of her seat

watching the fire

"What is my father doing? Blowing his head

out with smoke?"

Who's wilder, who's more mystical? Poet coming to lunch

O mystical sir

standing in the stairwell

three month old person smoke or breath

who's wilder, who's more mystical?

26 Robert Sward
