from France 's ennui/existentially
seeking warmer waters where red wine kidneys
float freely ,loosed and unleashed in translations
from New York(alleged modernists)-so far front line
fame must be sliced like a piano wire kitten
from West Texas where dust is a cowboy with a male church
and a dispensation of tongues for every form of service
from Minnesota freeze,where distance is squeezed via blog
Internet brings trees shivering together
from Australia,where warmth and beaches summers ozone holed layers
myths clash over bones of indigenous others
from Kansas and Oklahoma,where flat lands and spaces
bring a shallow crop of silences/speech gold corn stalking
from England tight and small as a Bristol mouse
iced over and snow criticisms cutting crystalline
from Mexico-illegal as borders,bringing warm languages
different to progenitors and forefathers/gangs,drugs ,rape
left behind as they climb on a train of words meeting in circular tracks
where each is heard according to worth
open as the door that swings them there and back
to little Austin(every night an open mike
international as coffee,speaking english as tea
offering each a temporary seat in the Republic Of The Free.
