OK - poetry inspired by William Carlos Williams

OK

It was good

That day

I remember I got my lunch

I signed OK

OK

And there’s that game

So much fun was had

When you 

Finally saw my OK

OK 

And now we can’t 

Help it to help everyone

To call out the OK

As not okay

OK 

For centuries before

must not have been good enough

For today watch out

If you say OK

----- These Paints -------

These paints these colors

are not good enough

they do not 

know

how to paint or color

---- Thoughts on a Dali ----

He was not on the sea

She did not see him

the scene emblazoned

long enough

the shape was open

love held tight

a greater longing

stood behind

Calling on memory

brush in hand

--- Responsibility ---

It was my idea

to sit and pull words in sequence

Down in the cellar

dank. The frigidity

So I've heard

It is your story

Down in the cellar too

dank. the Frigidity

Now I  must say

dead on. Specificity.

You've overstayed.

specificity. be gone.
