The Corduroy Mtn.


Your Place Has Arrived
Evelyn Hampton


Blips and blaps of days unordered
Everyone's childhood a vacant moon
Distilled into a liquid
Gives an even tone to the facial skin
Muscles nuanced by boredom
Fill with fluid laughter
Points on maps skitter toward
A line drawn by a distant surveyor
I knew him or we chatted in a corner
