Aditya Bahl


Selected Poems of Paul Blackburn

           small talk
                         mostly
           at first
                   then begins
      to          look a
                   wandering idyll
               an idle wonder
                        a game a trick a vision
        potter 
           of present & doesnt reason
                , bargain
                                   he's the kind of guy
       a porter of memorabilia
       parsing asides on pain & time sub
                             -tle
                          he jokes
                       The windows
                  are never wide enough

Poem

, jazz
     , the wind in wheat
                     fields,
         I just dont understand
                  WHY
