The heart is big
It crowds the T train
loud handstanding
The heart is raising money
for its basketball team
The heart is holding up
tarsal on metatarsal
a literal heart
hanging there in the air
You open your pocketbook to this heart
It is an involuntary physical response
The heart smiles
The heart exits after two stops
forearm balanced
and graceful
Grace is the watchword
you told me that
once
on the T train
in noontide halfdream
You were pale-colored figment
an apparitional heart
so natural you were supernatural
and I too dualist to notice
