Angelo's Spaghetti

Angelo's Spaghetti

I am here for donuts, but today Angelo is pushing spaghetti.
He is ill with the waitress, the appliance man, the wife,
and mostly himself, for cooking too much spaghetti,
so that now he is cooing it like a common hawker,
words falling from his mouth like a forgotten language,
his rage held behind the windshield of his deep eyes.
His father is coming for lunch, passing through a city
of window seats, his long face ready with judgment.
Already he has placed Angelo in exile.

Poet's letter home

Dear Mother, I am living in a mansion.

I have one identical to it in my jet.
Everyone loves me for my personality alone.
I have a bookcase in my bathroom &
slow motion dancers in my gardens.
All of my food is flown in from the islands.
My horses win every race.
My greyhounds are infallible.
If y… Continue
