Another ’Nother

by Clark Coolidge

My name is Sydney Wallet     what time are you dead ?
were you taken from life ?     I have to go
my own way     a waffle iron     a flint chalice
reinforced plaster of Paris     all these
will come to allow me use     watch
is that a toad ?     a result of my own cruise to
Attica     let her cool     come this way please
I call this my House of Facts     Fax ?
for example here is the one who invented the shortcut
he just couldn’t stand there     The Shadow knew
but no longer     his were the more
nautical tempos     most think nothing of the kind
that’s Charley Bronson as the Man from Warwick
Keith Jarrett’s next album will be The House of Wax
