-for Susan
A secret means of communication, tree names on another old-field site; jackrabbits in personal communication. Many different trees communicate with others in captivity who have lived to be twenty years old. Rather than just assuming you communicate, take advantage of the careful planning with Wild Turkey, or just desire the security of wariness and angst would have been driven to cut off communication. Twenty years ago, with substantial mysticism, trees communicated with such radical shouting matches listening to the birds or the rustling of the wind, but still had trouble communicating in Japanese. Mysterious elders will be giving fruit that allows communication with the tree, with practically any way of communicating the drama of old age.
Inspired (again!) by a post by Susan Scheid at Prufrock’s Dilemma.
Well, all I can say is “Suddenly the street was/Bananas and the clangor of Japanese instruments.” [Ashbery, from And Ut Pictura Poesis is Her Name)
Arigato, Susan. This flarf is powerful stuff.
But the Wild Turkey may be stronger!
Is it all right if I say that Ashbery is the source of the powerful stuff. (My evidence? You and Angela.)
Without a doubt!
Angela’s terrific. I am most definitely a work in progress.
Can’t forget Al. Where would I be right now if I didn’t sign up for Modpo?
True, true.
By the way, I started work on your request … I’m putting together the toolbox.
