Unforseen Benefits #1

An unforeseen benefit of being a minor poet in a small town in rural Missouri, is that I’ll never have to write an inaugural poem.

You must run for president yourself, John. And when you win, I will write your inaugural poem. It will be about squirrels, and the moons of Jupiter, and lactose intolerance.

If the moons of Jupiter are made of green cheese, squirrels, being rodents, would like to eat them. But lactose-intolerant squirrels would have to abstain.

One does not run for president. One crawls.

"O you dig and I dig, and I dig toward you, and on our finger the ring awakes" (Celan). John, you must wake the ring.
