Poems about poetry are the best poems there are.
The best light is the light which illustrates a star.
The best love is love which focuses on love,
Not those who wear love’s hat and love’s glove,
If the haberdashery is not too far.
We notice in faces, traces
Of a life busy and sad,
But we don’t like these faces.
Poems that are bad
Tell of other things,
When all we want from poetry
Is a poem inside of poetry—
A specter in a cloud that sings.
