Rio: A Journal of the Arts

 

jonathan levant

 

for whom the cover letter concerns

 

as a point of pride accept these of me

the titles godknowswhy resist listing

& my bioes blunder do not love me

my poems & your pages should be trysting

i'm an old geezer and my hair is graey

i've been writing since my youth stubbornly

my muse was mostly child and just grew

so one just slogs it out forlornly

i can never figure out what an ed-

itor wants not that i can change my course

be less obvious or less candid

do i still have a sort of off hand force

or are they flung from me who formerly

were only fled?    tis only slightly merdely
