High and Dry

Michael Hamburger


What is it, where is it, the suburban room
High up in a house with a view of nothing
That would locate it, that I could recognize
If looking were my business now that here
Day-long into an electronic slot I slide
Conundrums from a matrix brought to me
By men who do not speak? And if they spoke,
...
Searching, please wait...
