Informing the Intellectual
ramble last week.
-Yeah, he continues to search for the dog he
lost twenty-five years ago.
-Wouldn't it be dead by now?
-One might guess.
-Well, then…?
-He’s really looking for the Universal Dog.
-What’s that?
-Don’t know. Just made it up.
-May I look for it?
-Cost you dollar a pop!
-Must you be the brilliant American
in everything?

Finders and Keepers
More dangerous than put-
together, careening through
attics looking for some-
thing I couldn’t misplace
its place,
but forgot.
Organizing things
Is the surest ticket
to chaos.
But uncovering sentiment-
al artifacts past their shelf-
life of shame?
We quiet ones
need such,
however late.
