Listening To Buzz

The Buzz says good things
about absinthe, thrill-blue smoke
and the like; offers us

sacred images of green, then milk-white.
Green, then red, then brown,
then black; black-blue, bent-blue,

earthquake blue, hallelujah
blue, turned inside out
to show pure blue again.

The Buzz says the joy of clarity 

is not all-encompassing.  
Some pictures are 
best seen through haze.  

Crooked
movement can still cover
good ground.  Et cetera,

et cetera…don’t make such a fuss
about this, says the Buzz…slip in,
take a moment, take another, another…
