bookstore rises... by Deborah S Regan Bookstore rises where a dozen cows mooed about; Coffee steam surrounds groups of strangers Auditory pools overlap ambiguously Chessboard shifts with legs crossing in waves Phantom bovines arise bipedally Ears pricking up at the latest Harry Potter Preferring cappuccino with chocolate drizzles Wonderment at all the appreciation of dairy They sniff at the supplants, hardly grazing Interrupting peace with nonsense babble (But marvel at the sumptuous atmosphere And relief from the elements outside). And a reader betrays himself on his wrist Casual chair envelops the watch machinery noise, Further documentation of ever more distant origins, Cow's hooves sinking deliciously in near-mud 01/05/2002 Posted on 01/05/2002 Copyright © 2024 Deborah S Regan Member Comments on this Poem Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 07/22/16 at 02:37 AM Great mix of then and now, those bovines bipedally arising, "wonderment at all the appreciation of dairy" is such a fine line.
