Poetic Thoughts - APPARENTLY / OVER/UNDER STATEMENT - by C.W. Pruitt II

2 Poems by Patrick O'Hara

A few years ago I met Patrick O'Hara at a United States of Mind poetry reading. He shared two poems with me which I dug thoroughly-I hope you dig them, too.

APPARENTLY

The father.......the farther.
The mother, no other.

            PO'

OVER/UNDER STATEMENT

Over backwards we've leaned,
As under we've knuckled.
It's hard to be weaned
When you haven't been suckled.

            PO'
