common knowledge
Common knowledge is blue clay
brick pulled from the earth building
a city we can love together
The wealthy never had to suffer
changing titles, archetypes
and blackmail Underground
cloistered city, light flashes red
A bicycle chained to the overpass
looks down instead
overlooks, gables on and off
like a school of fish Architectural
intercessor stuck between
man and the divine Circling
the Loop like a monastery
originated the origins of the origins
of repetition Mortared brick
revival knowledge moves skyward
against the coffered union Bridled
the horses in your mouth
speaking used knowledge
Familiar because of the color
pink When is a fish like a building?
Both are gutted for convenience
sometimes for envy
Cut to bleed Clay to weep until dry
Scavenge a wall and harvest
the roe Pulling from the earth
or the sea either method makes
good on our desire to mimic
the sun If there is any brick left
build across the water
