Zorba: Premonition
Karen and I could return
home from the University
at any time depending on
seminars
how long they met
if they met
scholarship
library reading
office writing
advisors
mine
hers
gossip
giving
getting
and by any of various means
feet
buses
taxicabs
automobiles
Mary Adams
Eunice Baxter
Mary Lou Finney
even Professor Jackson
so how did the cats
Nancy
Vivian
perched
either side of the window
like ark angels
overlooking
you
lying on the porch
like one of the lions before a library
though your tongue hung out
know just when to pose yourselves like that?
