*** For Allen Ginsberg
Who wept in the lettuce?
Who bludgeoned the chuck roast?
Who walked down the soup line
like Andy Warhol?
Who squeezed the avocado
for a green plume of passion?
Who tried to save the lobster
from its Auschwitz tanks?
Who held the pale flesh
of the Halibut
to his or her beckoning breast?
Who will
unfreeze
all this ice?
