BEST OF THE WEEKS: THE FOOTPRINTS YOU ARE LEAVING WILL LOOK LIKE NOTES OF A CRAZY SONG

"Happiness, Joe says, is a wild red flower

plucked from a river of lava

and held aloft on a tightrope

strung between two scrawny trees

above a canyon

in a manic-depressive windstorm.

Don’t drop it, Don’t drop it, Don’t drop it—,"

And when you do, you will keep looking for it

everywhere, for years,

while right behind you,

the footprints you are leaving

will look like notes

of a crazy song.

- Excerpt from Tony Hoagland's "How it Adds Up" (2003)

"Outside the youth center, between the liquor store

and the police station,

a little dogwood tree is losing its mind;

overflowing with blossomfoam,

like a sudsy mug of beer;

like a bride ripping off her clothes,

dropping snow white petals to the ground in clouds,

so Nature’s wastefulness seems quietly obscene.

It’s been doing that all week:

making beauty,

and throwing it away,

and making more."

Except from Tony Hoagland's "A Color of the Sky" 2003

"Friends, we should have postmarks on our foreheads

to show where we have been;

we should have pointed ears, or polka-dotted skin

to show what we were thinking

when we hot-rodded over God’s front lawn,

and Death kept blinking."

Excerpt from Tony Hoagland's "Memory as a Hearing Aid" (1998)
