By Jack Joseph Smith

Life If I saw the sun the other way around Still it would come from the same place This is how you make a dream That is so good, sometimes so evil; but all and all the same Distorted and shaken, clear and flying in crazy color,. her rags are not a mixture, there appropriate Suddenly your snipped at,, and you through the guy,, there is a place he needs to go No such thing with a girl,, when everything is true All the time

"Life" imagines dream, violence, color, and desire as parts of a single unstable order in which truth with women and force with men obey different rules.

The poem keeps insisting on sameness inside contradiction: good and evil, distortion and clarity, all coming from the same source. Its images are theatrical and sudden, especially when the dream world turns physical and somebody gets thrown. The final distinction between men and women is rough but revealing, as if the speaker trusts intimacy to expose truth faster than combat ever could.

Life: if I saw the sun the other way around, it would still come from the same place. Distorted and shaken, her rags are not a mixture, they're appropriate.
