I'm heading to the beach to sit around in the sun for Easter. Then I'll enjoy something with ham.
From Zachery Schomburg's The Man Suit (Black Ocean, 2007):
Experiment in Invisibility
Today I held two bananas
over each of my shoulders
and presented myself
as a quotation.
I've been a cry for help mostly,
sometimes a joke.
When you stirred from
your sleep you wanted breakfast
but I was too late.
I had become the urgent
prayers of a desperate pilot.
I had become a marriage
proposal blown by a strong arctic
wind across Lake Ontario.
