Filling the glass with milk or
homes with Hollywood furniture.
Greed they say. The piggy bank
run amuck, the loud chair laced
for director.
Humility locates its contour map
of frilly things. This, the next big thing
in show business
because walls become predictable and
daydreams frame digression
with a flexibility of their own.
A briefcase breaks at the corner,
a ballerina’s pillow spreads out
in motion pictures.
Celebrity has a collapsing act.
What she does is her business.
