THIS WEEK’S WORDS come from “The River Merchant’s Wife: A Letter” by Ezra Pound: hair, flowers, dislike, wall, climb, swirling, sorrowful, moss, leaves, hurt, know, meet
See him swirl and jump
Might end up with bump
If you know him he can climb
To the wall and back
A man with a knack
There’s no such thing as downtime
Dancing on the street
Ears hurt with such beat
Hard to dislike him, such fun
Hair covered with cap
Meet him such a chap
Flowers and leaves also spun*
