Three Poems

 

J. D. Nelson

 

 

 

 

thanks for eating my knee

 

 

in the land of the freedom eagle

the people gnaw on the earth

 

in the garden of bottles

we wander about looking for the world

 

we see the james of the grand jowling

we see the green embers

 

yarn in the soup to feed the kittens

trigger the horse is a pumpkin of life

 

 

 

 

that could explain the camera lozenge

 

 

and now the hen will reside in the castle with the queen

and that tale shall be known as merrywood

 

                                      the coupon good for a waterfall

the measure will be the voice of the common bounce

 

the hammer in the dirt to balance the carpenter yarn

 

couch was a laser being

         across the table now a jetty

 

 

 

 

the need to know us in the air

 

 

scoopy moon dupe was a computer

the stupid fun was a bunch of numbers

 

credible noun hassle

would you like a cup of the voolie voo

 

wild head was a kick out

a white size rex the coot layer

 

the cloud is the hair in my eye

the western lentils exceed my reach
