Poetry to me is sanding surfaces to come upon the accidents of mind

Poetry to me is sanding surfaces
to come upon the accidents of mind
that so surprise the author
that upon the page
they open other eyes
I have in mind a palimpsest
that hunchbacked makes his way
to a donut shop
where windblown wrappers swirl
around his threadbare ankles
and then come to rest
as a distant harmonica
plays Bach and Mozart
badly
