Caveat: Poem #1912 “And that made me think of the poet Labordeta”

ㅁ
I dreamed yet another vivid dream:
a kafkaesque replay of when
I had gone off to grad school.
In this version, I stalled,
avoided meeting
the professors
till at last
they found
me.
The woman was quite pleasant to me.
She showed me these small clay figures,
instructed me to describe
each one in fine detail.
One was a strange thing:
a fire-breathing
trolleybus
with green
eyes.

– a pair of nonnets.
