40 Lbs. of Pollen

40 Lbs. of Pollen can't be wrong
Least favorite screen saver
Sand with shadow
Or dust on film
(just for effect)

Pee in the corner
For now or always
Let the drain carry you away
Out to sea and until we meet again
As air or water or food
As take-out, gatorade or gas mask
Fill me up again
And I will push you down
With help from inertia

Save all things
Face and matter
Like blankets in summer
Stripper money
Cotton fill
Warp yarn and weft
Woof and howl
Keepsake

Strum guitar or uke
Sing falsetto
Make it lovely
Breathy chorus
Join in hands
Pat the dirt
Down
Let it settle
Then blow
Like candles out
Half pound of pressure
40 lb. max
