Two Poems from Book of Eumaeus
Christopher Casamassima
21.16
He did wave, Vimognio, so all those trials so
Ural so Ramini. Hands, and arms, and Pietro Monti,
carved heads of you, Piacenza, Acro of mere Arbeti.
And Pietà, sap the violet Caludius, mark Calpe
and refrain. Don’t sap the verb Josephus Jean you
mere watt, Psalms of a nether-poem. The only latch
he sees disarms, Iti, and be gone amid the fire Po, martyr
for the Delos, and repose and know Canzoni
as a distant vane. Vane, Cosimo, you go down Cloux
and accuse you showoff stout, Leghorn the matron. Como
is a joke and a clown Galeazzo, help me, Apollo, held
me a salt tear like a fawn to Euclid. Danube of the Cyprus,
Constanza, heroic, husband, and wife, so conspicuously
Magnus. Adam, Adige, lead us in joyous anguish, seize Arluno
what is meant to Rhine the life you Okhos never. Leo, elusive
and honest, he is Vico, and the Tiber a mere ficus. Acates,
moot star of feign appearance, while he went hurrying
Viterbo on the sea, Sardus, born unjointed faux.
21.163
The first eye grew Plutarch in their ears, sudden
weapons, Lebanon, it’s your fault the Caspian is
cascading. What strains forth from the faces, Danes,
slipped and broke their aura, Donau, the streak of
the meatsane Jacopo. The architext of a new Italian,
cinematic Lodi, Ghiera D’Adda, who, presuppose you
mind out of Trozzo, one should not suppose so
suddenly, and it rains the second Sangallo, Santa
Maria del Fiore, Santa Maria Nuova, rains.
Sansovino you Lux, a documentary history, Pera,
in the middle of the night. Where did you get
this Suspiria? Who sold the rubric Brolio? It
waned, but not in the vane of an Azov, he was
bodily mutilated. And the Colle, weight of Diogenes
a singular Oxus. Decree, and the night wanes. Rhodes,
and the sky writes Porus, Nonius, Venus, and sleeps.
