Lullaby Once Owned By Mr. Bones

Corners need love stories too
and carpets, stones out on the road,
the new dvd player,

old dead walt whitman,
one of jason’s argonauts,
a rivet unused

on the empire state building
the one dropped
by rene ontiveros

love stories need love stories too
in sanskrit in spanish
or in a language unheard of in two thousand years.
