the 14.3 billion
forms of intelligence


january 1, 2005

buster keaton
uncredited marx brothers scenarist
rows with a capuchin monkey
at the tiller

that sight gag as weltanschaung

the ornithopter
bobbing in an eleutheromanic effort
to gain flight with such violence
that it shakes itself to pieces
like an outhouse in a tornado

often in the book called deinventing myself
something happens like
the hero discovering that what has tripped him
is the sign warning him of a wet floor

sis and the brother-in-law
in an effort to get the two young
video-fixated boys out of doors
build them a sort of halfway house
in the backyard

wes montgomery
grapples with the english language
to put into words what the guitar articulates
it's not jumana
but it's the asfects of jumana

a mixup in the sound booth
my friend pam says
and president gw bush enters the hall
to the tune of
barnacle bill the sailor

it would be perfect
if only we had
some hidden valley ranch dressing
