Confused by this poem? See note at end.
Title: A Title: B Title: Nada
Incandescent flight pears overhead with saris
that thorn my side like glare (soleil, soleil, soleil)
more than once upon a time, etc. etc. the woman tore her hair
and stairs collapsed (de rien)
bouyant, 1-2-3, shards burst outward
can of cat food, mountain of cans (pas de probleme)
mounting anesthesia, physics realm, dream to nightmare
Oh, Belle Dame Sans Merci. Alarm.

Note: In 2005, I wrote this poem in response to a few purposefully "difficult" poems I'd read. While my tastes have changed/broadened since then, I continue to (strongly) prefer poetry that is at least somewhat accessible. So...this parody is still relevant.
