the poetry of orphans

  
 
   
   
the dogs ran away    
from home for seven  
days and the police    
didn't care  
   
the Dallai Lama    
threw rose petals    
over lovers frozen    
in a dry pantomime    
   
cigarette butts    
shield the eyes of  
children from the  
naked truth of  
the David    
   
and the days    
are bastards,  
orphans that    
belong to no  
one  
   
but they play  
on like a long,  
cool Coltrane    
solo that drive  
the hours into  
unabated    
fury
