Poetry
Poems Under Different Names
by A ve n d o r
I swept the throne room
of the king
I kept the dolphins
and heard them sing
At the foot of the tower
I begged for change
and read these poems
under different names.
I carried the quartz scepter
through the kingdom in the clouds
I met you in the valleys
far from the maddening crowd
And often when, the mythical birds
of morning began to chirp
I had my sweat, and your tears
dampening my shirt.
And so if you ever find yourself
alone and brokenhearted by the Thames
You can read these poems
under different names.

If I Were an Animal or Bird,
I Would Be
by Nathan
Crazy like a fox,
wily and reclusive,
And in fear of publicity,
And in fear of people,
But strong and durable;
I will always get along
Because I am smarter than you smell.
