visual 3 word poem #8 by C.P. Harrison
I’m sure the problem is
I’ve been looking for a point
to it all
"— c.p.harrison
a young woman kisses passionately,
a young man and woman kiss,
a young man tries to kiss a young woman’s
cheek.
photographs of women in bikini bottoms with their
arms covering their bare breasts hang
on an office wall.
a young man bare-chested and
another man is bare-chested.
a young woman’s top gets soaked
the outline of her nipples.
women are shown in bikini tops and shorts,
the sides of their breasts, bare
midriffs, backs and legs.
a young woman is shown in outfits that expose her
cleavage, bare abdomen and legs (mini-skirts, tight tops and hip huggers).
a young man and woman flirt.
a young man flexes says
“big change,”
a man remarks
“raging hormones,”
women are interviewed and make remarks
about Spider-Man’s physique.
enjoy it
seeing it and experiencing
it are
not enough
i am american
when I see what you
have
created
i really want
to
buy it

a window where a child can watch the birds
a cat plays with a bunch of strings
at once
she doesn’t feel fake or feel like a fraud
because she thinks she’s God
tried to watch a documentary film, Shakespeare Behind Bars,
got 8 minutes in Caliban describes how at 9 years old his Tshirt was torn while being molested by the older boys in the
neighborhood.
When he got home his alcoholic old man calls him a lying punk and asks if he knows how much he had to pay for that Tshirt.
Within a year the old man is raping him on a regular basis.
Within 2 years his mother is.
Caliban sits in his cell and shares everything,
no blah blah blah scenarios,
none of those.
I couldn’t watch
I feel guilty for not finishing the film
that’s as much as I can share.
I am interested in your painting
and I find your way of life appealing…
as we see him standing in the full vigor of health ,
the blood circulating in his veins
like two firefighters jacking into
a variety of hose configurations.
Today is defintely not an end.,
one door closes, and all that…
We walked out, talking about work,
smiling.
With enough time, a hypothetical monkey
typing at random could re-present
the Hindu text The Bhagavad Gita
so why haven’t they done it yet? they have no reason to.
There are only humans on twitter,
deep space is not for artist,
and while chimps are only 1% genetically different
the new pope is still
nothing but a hopeless money pit in the sky
