adventure bridge

testing, testing, 1,

2, 3, 4. five. 1, 2, 3.
4, five. that was.

that was really a
fantastic choice,
mister marvelous.

it was almost an

adventure bridge

leading us assuredly

to the next level.  
it was this big fluffy

cloud in the shape 

of a giant lemming—

and it’s got a silver
lining which, if we

chase in our electric

automobile all the way

to albuquerque (and we

do!) we’ll find that

it not only sparkles but
glows in the dark!

it’s midnight in

albuquerque now
and i am having

an epiphany a
catharsis an

aha moment a

breakthrough
that makes it 

so obvious to me

how true this
too good that

you are to me

cannot con-

ceivably be.

but even a 

dream is okay

with me.  so long

as not until after

which do the 

walls come 

down with a

mighty tumb
ling crash 

which nothing

falls through

not even the 

other shoe;

the very same
shoe, which, when

on the other foot

is tingling with 

unwalkable

sleep having 

just awoken from 

the sweetest most
floaty of dreams.

but because i 
am used to this
by now i’ve got it

and i didn’t
even forget to
stretch it to its

limit to milk
it for as long
as is humanly

and humane 

ly impossible.
so. we part

ways in
the desert
do not look

back i owe

you my life
my deepest

thank you 
(you may 
say it’s ver

boten but i
must not say

so). therefore

my sweet in
delible love
i bid you not

only a fond
adieu, but
I bid it

most ost
entatious
my raging

audacious
and not
barely 

audible
[achoo!!]
apercu.
