POEM: "New Year Poets"



New Year Poets 


It’s not spring, it’s not 
     winter
we agree it doesn’t
     matter
poetry dead
     around the world

but alive around 
     our table
twenty tigers eating 
     dinner
drinking wine instead
     of water
a smile here, a smile
     there
eating our vegetable
     lives
beauty in a circle
     we take deep breaths
later 

     the traffic jams
back to 
the zoo.
