POEMS             Toot me Light
                             von William P. Benz
		            June, 1997

The ships are in
  & the skin of the city crawls with sailors
     & their counterparts
           plying the waves of desire.
 
Tut mir leid,
  but I will pass on the Rose Festival, Again.

Toot me light.

    The cold war is not over, it's just come home.

     Toot me light.

             A rose in a bottle,
                 A bottle on the wave.

                   Tut mir leid.
