I’d seen him before at various farmers markets and other
public places – the young poet who sits at a vintage typewriter, composing on the fly:
“Your Poem, Your Price.” This afternoon at Phinney Farmers Market, he spotted
me sketching him and then stopped typing, so I encouraged him to keep writing.
He asked if I was drawing him, and when I said yes, he said he would write a
poem about that experience. Here’s the poem, typed on a small piece of paper:
poem about being drawn
colors perform
rites beyond
the reach of words.
pen moves in
quick sylabols
producing pictures of
universal understanding.
thus carictature
is promoted
to king of
dictionary and
webster is
given a less
valued position
thus giving it a chance
to further
dissolve the either. (or ether)
That's cool! --- Larry
