Work Together Water

Work Together Water

A Poem by K Scott Smith

work together water               
a solid such as earth
parts of the ear            
                      
 we’ll trace the path of a sound

you first need to understand just what sounds hearsay balloons into

this pressure
swells into vibrations which pull in particles from farther out

in Weimar Germany
the two actresses were said to have caught him in bed with men several times

working together a liquid such as
a sultry half lisp
and                             
a verse of classic doggerel.  
you understand one of the most remarkable things about this:  

                       the original source is said to be floating about
                       renowned in Hollywood for oral sex:             
                       
it’s easy to move the air particles around
this creates a drop in pressure which pulls in the atmosphere
moves the air particles around it.  I heard
that he was caught in bed with men several times.  
In fact, the best
from its original source
all the way to your brain         
 a liquid such as water
he slept with pretty much every woman and man
in Hollywood and he’d ask men to extinguish
 their cigarettes on his chest and in his ear

Imagine the whole thing is some kind of conspiracy �"
it is possible that the more liberal environment
 pulls in particles even farther out.  
They work together

move the air particles around them collide
with the particles in front of them which collide
with the particles in front of them which collide
with the particles in front of them and          
   so         on.  


This is a cop’s idea of what people do


the autopsy splashed cold water on the rumour
