"Magenta Sonnet"
"Complicate the way you parse a sentence
into 14 parts or lines.
Why are you sitting in the sun?
Due to the good grace or the many non-bombed bridges?
Bougainvillea is to my left below the Castro's
hallowed eve.
Asa or Ava aren't anagrammatic names, nor is Ada.
Abba means Dada or Daddy in Bible language.
My mommy taught me many mnemonic songs
to list the names of states of holy authors of books
like ecclesiastical honeys, outrageous bluebird mocking,
the five petals of painful revelation,
closures inconclusive, change of season."
