What the Looters Took

Sunflowers! In a shower
of pallet strokes
and Marc Chagall's mule
of old fashioned
Christmas candy.
Riots of Lilly
and Rose
and Daisy
and
Shocks of
Hibiscus -
and Matilda's
"OK-"
 

Fun	Geometry	Algebra

Long walks in friendly neighborhoods;
giddy with innocence
and
Surprise
and
Recognition, in that
"better" world.

N-o-t-i-c-i-n-g
things

This is what they took.

And now each,
by parameter:
the juggler mathematician,
"Au Matin",
and Bolero
are frozen
at the academy on
Tango Zulu.
Now lifeless;
it was either
the greatest act
or
is the greatest loss.
