"Ah, mon cher, we are odd, wretched creatures, and if we merely look back over our lives, there's no lack of occasions to amaze and horrify ourselves."

The Project: Chapter 1

These are poems. This is a project. Work is in progress.
--------------------------------------------------------

Chapter One

1.

I begin
Where beginnings are

at the end
of an other

2.

in continuing
this tale
I must raise
issues

3.

cathedrals
wastelands
Valhalla
London
Bombay
a mansion
a cottage

this one time
these two times
those times

of rhymes but
no reason

4.

time passed
or I passed it
as time stood
perfectly still

either way there
was motion
sickness

5.

post
modern medicine

complications arose
the patient
etherized on a table’s

condition became un-
stable and
Dr. Professor tried

so Eliot survived
while the love song
