"My rosary is broken
my beads have all slipped through"

—B Taupin

"Beautiful Losers was written outside, on a table set among the rocks, weeds and daisies, behind my house on Hydra, an island in the Aegean Sea. I lived there many years ago. It was a blazing hot summer. I never covered my head. What you have in your hands is more of a sunstroke than a book."

urn ragged indigo
ink-begrudged effigy

longer pig pentagram
pawned above-universe

unhoused green happiness
harg duly cerulean

sparse my veer venturesome
invites brick characters

God is Alive (lineated as poetry).
