Peter A. Weinberg – Poetry

Planning is essential

   If it wasn’t for the money
      she wouldn’t like me much

Plans are useless

   With the money
      she likes me well enough

She tingles my pleasures and goes

   It isn’t what I want

She leaves me

   This isn’t what I wanted

We can’t exist for the sake of suffering alone

   and it’s lonely

The facts change again

   the glosses come off

The names are written in salty wet wakes

   This universe

The names flare like iron in sand

   is simple, beautiful, and elegant
