Comic Notions & Cosmic Ruminations
after midnight: two verses


1.
I used to quaff sake in China
although it were known then as Joe
as parrot or mocking or minah
I mime the gestalt of the flow
at midnight Malkauns clears my head
I dawdle with cyberized chess
it's not been my fortune to wed
my wife-to-be lost my address!


2.
The sake is mild & organic
the YouTubed Gundechas intone
Machado of course was Hispanic
because God's obscure he's alone
when poets or painters depicted
the myriad conceits of creation
life liberated or conflicted
occasioned ennui or elation
