Michael Cluff- A Poem

  Follies Michael

 Hamsters
 wingtip shoes
 faith in the goodness of ours.
 Two of the triad
 have been satisfying
 with cup of green tea
 and pralines,
 ways to overcome
 the evaluation of thirty-three
 student papers in seventeen hours
 the added weight
 the old- fashioned
 quaint style sense
 perceived and percolates
 volcanic and rendering
 towards a self-immolation
 of a freezing
 hyperbolic kind.
 The reminder does not hurt
 temporarily
 like the others
 but malingers and maligns
 into a heavy bergere
 which consumes
 and vomits nitre vapors
 on many of my
 unoccupied, unformed
 days.
