concrete,\nMy cry in the bottleglass,\nMy cry in the frost:\nNot the gestalt of the thing,\nbut some slice.\n\nII. greening\n\nThere is a green wildfire of mint in a terracotta pot\nand there is a sheath of summer-smelling parsley woven against the ground\n\nThere is a you—on the yellow seat with wine.\nYou, who gathered african violets in her arms and stole them,\nwith rushing, nervy steps from their greening-golding continent,\nand there is a toothpick tilted against your lips, inert levantine wood, droll and unassuming.\n\nYour body screams yes god and your the-irish-were-oppressed-you-know green eyes are zambian-mined and dollar-minted and your Fashion Nova clothes come from nowhere all."],"Note":["[{\"note\":\"Carlos A.
