Adverbs
after Gertrude Stein
imagine her pained
expression we have little
footage of her feelings
happy in Garches
at her brother Michael’s
bemused to read
the libretto
“From Four Saints
in Three Acts”
in the States
though where exactly
no one knows I talk
exactly as I write
she says putting on
her glasses
but exactly -- an adverb
after all she wrote
without them!
