Anna Couani #173 misere

thinking about a drawing

of a group of objects

it becomes a print

not direct expression

and the objects sit on a shelf

the idea is separateness

somehow degraded

misshapen

easy to do, misshaping

a memory

flies in

opens like a hand of

open misere

lays out orange

a communist dad

ranting about pop music

exploiting the youth

and we the youth

at the time

just wanting to listen

to music

be together

get wrapt in the groove

aware of the horrible truth

but longing
for that space
