The Communist
I get to my apartment
My dingy apartment
Sweaty and tired
Very, very tired
My neighbor comes out
He's been watching the soaps
The miserable soaps
He asks me for my paycheck
And I give it to him
I am a good Communist
The Color of Dog's Blood II
My feelings for Sandra are
Pure, essential love
The kind without harm which
End in a desire to always be good
Her effortless laughter
Creates happiness in me
But my passion for her is
The color of dog's blood
For Sarah, iridescent admiration
I cannot describe
In a middle-class poem
Her intelligence
A crystalline wonder
But my passion for her is
The color of dog's blood
For Gabrielle, domesticity
A knowing kind of love
Tenderness, easy affection
Tranquility and quietness
But my passion for her, too
The color of dog's blood
For Isis, a lost soul
A colorless mist...
Her clueless existence
Draws my generosity
But drains it from me
Her boring inertia fills my mind
And my passion for her (yes)
The color of dog's blood
The Neighbor
She comes out just to tease
This next door friend
Mows the grass
In her underwear
She's not a good neighbor
She comes out to tease
The Investment
I wish I could save happiness
Put it in a bank
Draw it out as needed
Like water from a well
Sell my surplus
To those in need
Though more often
Use it myself
