Amazing Interludes
1.
Looking far down the street,
the American lady made discreet
inquiries as to reproductive technologies.
2.
Her friend Henri often noted
that it was harder to tell blacks from whites
on radio than on TV.
3.
Henri had a cousin named Germaine
who’d never even heard the term
“white flight.”
4.
The American lady had a lovely shell, rising
above the vegetable soup
simmering on the stove.
5.
Henri recites Sun Tzu on the both the advantages
and dangers
of “accessible” ground.
6.
Perhaps a thousand men hide in a row
of poplars,
guarding their lines of communication.
