This month, I'm going to try to post a poem-a-day as well.
Here are three from Gregory Laynor.
From the Deleted Poems of Gregory Laynor
Will you put me in your diorama
Will you tie me to your shoe
Googly eyed stick figure
From the Deleted Poems of Gregory Laynor
Are we having fun counting sausages for beans
Asking Ronald Reagan for a Jasper Johns
Boys in bowties asking about our fun
From the Deleted Poems of Gregory Laynor
As every schoolboy knows
The best of all possible worlds
Leaves much to be desired
Gregory Laynor is a poet working on a PhD at the University of Washington in Seattle. He previously studied & taught at Temple University in Philadelphia. His reading of Gertrude Stein's The Making of Americans appears on UbuWeb & he does a blog at academicpoetry.com.
