Dear Seth
We are in the new year now
hello
In the last days of the old one
the doctor told us hard news
and my mind excluded
most other thoughts
so when the idea
to make that funny version of your book cover
came to me
I was grateful for the visit
And it’s true that almost nothing is better
than the movies
Philomena American Hustle
or a series is good
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
On New Year’s Eve a new test told us
we’d all probably be okay
I did not know
when I began I’d fill these poems
with so much information
which saturates
my life
Some people see information
as that which cannot be predicted
the break
in the pattern
It is still snowing
I’d like to know how this year
will break me
Floating Wolf
