Cid Corman

Silence adds
venom
to the fart.

* * *

A hint or tint of
music—as if the silence
were being turned on.

* * *

Silence emphasizes this.

* * *

Every rock is
broken up trying to say
something uselessly.

* * *

Relativity
and quantum mechanics and
all of the answers
to a reputed uni-
verse. All only poetry.

* * *

So many
blank pages
making the
poetry
explicit.
