Two Poems
Poetry and Audio by:
IVA MOORE
I Hate You Jackson Pollock
I hate you Jackson Pollock
I hate you like wall street
For being so bad with women
I’m a woman
But too abstractly to be bad with
O little lover with your little
Slice of anger
What is it like to be a man
Is it like spitting
Is it like spitting in a cup?
I am not trying to speak to sickness
I want to speak to you
You are so embodied and limp
Like a sandcastle
I will try to make this time important
Before I run my hip into it
I want to get into a vehicle
I want to get into a fight
Are you going to let me tell you
Which fighting to do
In a poem by a good poet
His mistress and wife are smiling
Three is an uncertain plot
We are going to have an affair
We are going to have it in the house
We should go into the house and have it
