Hey, let’s break the rules and start the weekend a little early! Here’s a lovely gem to help on on our way from one of the poets, who know a thing or two about breaking rules:
Today
Oh! kangaroos, sequins, chocolate sodas!
You are really beautiful! Pearls,
harmonicas, jujubes, aspirins! all
the stuff they’ve always talked about
still makes a poem a surprise!
These things are with us every day
even on beachheads and biers. They
do have meaning. They’re strong as rocks.
Frank O’Hara
