Imaginary People

:: prev :: next ::


Walking to walls whereas labour calls
even through doors and falling through floors
The wonder around is soon to be bound
real people i seek every day of the week

© 1987 john r. chase


i have, perhaps in error, changed the date of this poem from 1986 to 1987. i can't imagine having written this at any other time than when i frist began working for the state of virginia in downtown richmond.
