Go to sleep
Go to
Sleep
Molly

Auckland. I didn’t expect this
There’s miserable people in
Queen Street doorways begging
I’m here for a show we call
Men Having Fun at Chiaroscuro
Kim plays saxophone.“What’s New?
But Not For Me.” Dexter Gordon
Did you see the man who bought
World Weary Pink
Toia and Kupe shoving Columbus
Victoria into dock?
A sensual man
He’ll lick your painting all
over when he gets it home
Kim and Jean, Madeleine and Molly
I love staying with you

Madeleine, your painting of the
whale drags me to a primal austere
place of joy off Stewart Island
Exploring keys. Molly’s bedtime
vocal I Helen Stewart Hossack
River flatten your armchair fat.
