Owls Top Bankers, 1-0

The Sante Fe Banking Commission--
God, what an institution! I mean--
the pageantry! The depth of actuarial 
prowess! Ardent men with white pressed
shirts who return day after day--
except Fridays, often, and the four 
weeks vacation they take--and many Mondays
during football season--

…but I'm getting ahead of myself. 

Where was I? 
The SFBC! Oh Dear Jesus, Thank You
for God's Bankers, these men--their 
love for burgers, the love of clean-
liness and slavery, to one's 
passions--banking, that is--

Where am I? 
God help me. I'm weeping. I'm 
really weeping. 

2nd Field

Not the first field, okay? 
But the next one, 
behind the third, 
where the snakes are 
eating mushrooms, clouds
grow in the clown's belly 
and vroom the Macaws shake 
lose folds of laughter like 
crackling thunder underneath 
the moon startling! wow! 

sinister briefly bits of 
brain-spun cold wound home this
bit of tomorrow's feeling,
a man kneeling and homeless by the side
of the robe 

the cold heart where the worm turns 
tomorrow into tomorrow and tomorrow 

is today.
