BREAKFAST EGGS & BEER

It’s best to read poetry first off
before the clutter of the day takes shape: a precocious
little girl spitting her raspberry tongue
in your face.

It’s good with eggs & beer.  There is a kind of
promise in both of these foods.  For example
Stanley Kunitz’s thundering heart
made quiet garden in my hair
only this morning

then the rest of the day just happened to be full of the world.

Matthew Keuter
