Ripped and Wrapped
Or the onset of snow;
who hears this now?
It was that little brown
book I bought
at the college bookstore.
It was that book beside
the toilet you pointed at
The Act of Transferring Energy.
It was the poetry
reading with Steve
and then you two
got in his car
went back on
the road and gone.
It was
this and it
was that.
Seven of Spades - Gary Snyder
