Das Kapital
different ways of seeking out
and acknowledging card carrying
fellow cell party members
flash a PEASANT AGRARIAN PARTY salute
clenched fist thumbs up down or around
turning swords into ploughshares
feeding the masses

Sculptors Peasant Agrarian Party

we are sculptors all
seeking the perfect shape
with quick and sturdy hands
sculpting our communalism poetry
to mould into
three-dimensional art bare stone on the cutting edge

Station de Metro Paris
venting spring warm air from far down below
trees to entranceways bloom first at metro stations
desante de niveau Pasteur train en correspondance
metro Ligne 12 destination Mairie d’issy
debarcation station Portes de Versailles
en route metro wheels hissing against the rails encircled by
scarlet creased faced stocky mustached men with gnarled hands
reassuring slew of European languages assail my ears
akin to being squeezed by wine drenched garlic buds
le Salon International D’Agriculture is back in Paris
merde alors
