April is Poverty Mouth


How to Explain Minimalism to a Social Sculptor

if you could slow the world down fast enough

a sadness inconsolable, our lengths

squared, inert

 

boxes on horizons, for dogs to rush amongst

rounding (off) our corners, turning flesh

into stone, boulders

 

to move between, dogs gone, the wind

in their place now, the whistling and its wind

the only thing grown about us 

 

vast and limbless, domes of stone

not representations but manifestations, pylons

for what’s new with us

 

it’ll always besiege us, our blocks eroded

Blake’s beached eternal, ocean gyres and their plastic

participatory art, posthumous
