Poem: Beginning With a Line By Norma Pearse.
a pig from a message machine
sitting out in a foreground of bustle
where a lot of hay seems to be made
it isn't the sun burning the soup
a lot of unclaimed dust
the day is taking a powder!
sheer strips of light piled up
something to lean upon
in a lean upon afternoon
it just sort of says justly
how it is while on its way
so many perfect leans
mosaics from the message machine
setting out a formal bustle there is
nothing here that hasn't been missed
it isn't the sun burning the soup
