Drunken Winter
Oak oak! like like
it then
cold some wild paddle
so sky then;
flea you say
"geese geese" the boy
June of winter
of again
Oak sky
– Joseph Ceravolo (1934-1988). "Drunken Winter" (1967) owes its effect to "the things in it," Kenneth Koch felt. "Even the words like like seem thinglike." See The Oxford Book of American Poetry for this and other poems by this extraordinary talent.
