Ars poetica

Not to brag, but

Where else, but in a poem
of maybe a dozen lines –
a moment out loud,
a glance at the page,

Can you wake to the glee
of the 1913 Armory Show,
walk the dog,
riffle memory,

And be home in bed on time tonight?

Craft services would run to six figures,
if you did that with cameras.
