Gregory Vincent St. Thomasino, Two Poems


Two Figures in a Vitrine, image by Irene Koronas


Two Poems 
for Daniel Y. Harris & Irene Koronas


1.

this undead bone
from which the body will be
being indestructible
will form the nucleus for the resurrection of the body
into the fire
with miraculous qualities
holy bone
jew bone

2.

rhapsody
his finger numb
long piano strokes
notations
for piano
every hour the same
handsome poets
scores of composition
one has to name names
all who are squat


—Gregory Vincent St. Thomasino
