poem about a kitchen: may 6 2012


the kitchen in my new place
is a kitchen for exactly one person
cubpoards counters oven closet
wedged at the correct perpendicular angles sure 
but just shy of being miniature
i’m half-watching/listening
to a rinpoche talk of compassion
part 4 of 14 parts
and he’s funny
and i laugh
but he’s also making me mad
there are two empty vitamin water bottles
one with a cap
one without
and a bowl
and this plastic silverwear thing i got
for 1 u.s. dollar
i’m thinking i’ll use for pens

i hope this will cooperate to be in the order i'd like it to be all linear-progression-like (really is that too much to ask?)

floor plans of an unusual house or unusual floor plans of a house

no attic? no basement? 

murder or attempted murder of a teapot

oh dear

walking along the hills in my favorite frozen lasagna label

one of the nice things about all this new-fangling digitation of technologicos is that you can insert yourself walking along in the smudgy half-heartedly depicted rolling hills of the 'umbrian' landscape which exists on the label of your favorite type of frozen lasagna you have eaten possibly hundreds of packages at this point

these hills are divine but how time required to microwave your contents to lunch-readiness it is quite a scientific marvel but i do not fault you as i know this to be universally frozen-lasagna true
