Oh, the brain is such
a busy beast, operating
on its own, only oh occasionally
letting will pretend it is a manager.
On its own, the beast
associates the Thursday word
with an aubergine purple
and velvet texture.
It links Saturday
to red, Sunday to hard
translucence, Monday to off-white
or beige, Tuesday
to blue and an upholstered feel,
Wednesday to tan and cinnamon,
a graininess. Friday: black and gray,
the vintage whimsy of
a checkerboard linoleum floor.
Brain, to what end, this
communication between strangers
in the internal jazz cafe?
