Manifesto

Manifesto

You can find the statement of the woods
attached, please,
and it is necessary to abide,
if you want to walk in it
with no shoes on at least
for a little while,
at least until the fist cut.

You can find me waiting there,
I’d like to say by the sea
but I know its not true
and that there is no Wifi on the coast
so you probably wouldn’t be able to
join me anyway.

You eat a peach,
(I will find out later on my phone)
and I think of T.S. Eliot,
and the way fuzz grows
on living things.

This is unusual –
typically there is more Internet
typically there are more videos of sharks
and piranhas who will get you.

But we are back in the woods,
and they are represented now
now that they are
we ought to obey.
