Glancing

By Jack Joseph Smith

The archery from the head has not been well placed Desires to communicate design speeches, with no sense of humor in the sound A last decency for honors sake is suggested, and the words are watched like animals within each others smell Diamonds in the ruff are knarling down the long shafts at the end of the hoax in South Africa Along with a lecture I heard in nineteen sixty two at Notre Dame, Indiana about where the brain began And after all the slaves of Eden, the allegory of fine stones has rejected being polished down to the darkened viewing the Dovermenpincher's bite like the shot that gets the antler's Now up the trade on camera of unbrella s for rifles as education on call for interpertation has vanished And for those not tied off... Street artists are the only protection Not even a Gothic bell is necessary at noon Collectors through the mail rap energy into religion Sinister powers construct frescos of production for the planets as we develope backwards what our offspring will do as lunatics

A meditation on failed communication and misdirected thought, connecting diamond mines in South Africa, a lecture at Notre Dame, and the allegory of Eden to a world where education has vanished and street artists are the last remaining form of protection.

The speaker watches words as animals, recalls a lecture at Notre Dame and links polished stones to domination. The claim that street artists offer protection gives art a task amid the speaker's distrust of education and production.

'Glancing' moves from 'The archery from the head has not been well placed' and words 'watched like animals / within each others smell' to 'Diamonds in the ruff', 'the hoax in South Africa', 'a lecture I heard in nineteen sixty two / at Notre Dame, Indiana', and the claims that 'education on call for interpertation has vanished' and 'Street artists are the only protection', ending 'as we develope backwards what our offspring will do as lunatics'.

The title describes the method: each line glances at a new subject without settling, which suits a poem about lost interpretation. 'knarling', 'Dovermenpincher's', 'unbrella s', 'interpertation' and 'develope' are typed forms.
