The House Teeterred
FOUND by Jeff Tigchelaar in Lawrence, Kansas
I found this unsealed (and, at the time, unstamped) thank-you note on the ground at Java Break Cafe and Cereal Bar, my favorite coffeehouse. I don't know if the frat-bro who wrote it is a poet or not, but his note not only flowed...it almost seemed intentional--yet effortless--with its wordplay, sound repetition, and line-breakage: 'write'...'Psi'...'provide'; 'provide'/ 'presence'; 'stability'...'security'...'absurdity'... And...the imagery! I'm sure Mom Wolfe will thoroughly appreciate his sentiments--and, as I have, his prose.
