Morning in Summer I have read I have read Micheal Palmer before this date this morning and I have read him afterward once in Sante Fe and I was out numbered with light I was a tree and there were these words shucks it was nothing the morning before this room perhaps a lighthouse in which warped figures lay against the sea Hey Shadow its me says the sea and Sunday boy is it ever enough space to say Hey Micheal Over Here.

Very consistently engaging poems in a subtly surreal mode. The accolades from others here are well deserved.

Du säger
Ett mirakel från Himlen

Du säger
Jag mår fint jag mår fint jag blir just blind

Pigg som en lärka idag
Säger du

Jag har inga krämpor eller besvär
i mig i min kropp inuti

Jag mår fint jag mår fint jag blir just blind
Det är en fröjd att leva

Det kom en besökare ikväll
med kostym och skägg och rottingkäpp

klättrade in genom mitt fönster
och kom in i mig

Är det så illa
Är detta någonting alls

Jag har varje kväll en vallmo i hjärnan
som sluter sig före gryningen

Vad som än hände då ska inte hända igen
Var snäll och flytta min arm
