I wonder to myself a lot if all of
sputnik's data tapes were released by
kernel sagamov when he commanded
that novel program back in 1944

yes, I wonder if the public knows
that the russians put SPUTNIK AJAX-1
into orbit way back when many armies
still had horses and mules pulling loads

I visited kernel sagamov in
a siberian sanitorium last month
suffering for his astro-professorship
some call hogwash, a tarnished brass badge

nonsuch cavalcades are the grist of
sophocles and his necromania
with the enthusiasm of a wabash
cannonball, sagamov detuned van allen's belt

his thoughts are fermentable waves now
like spanish moss off the mendocino coast
indicators of a radiation free air
thrifty hummingbirds awakening at dawn

captain nijinsky tends to kernel sagamov
futilely preserving an oral history of
how centipedes inspired a rocket design
his reddish troika outshouting axioms.



Acts 13:1

Now there were in the church that was at Antioch
certain prophets and teachers;
as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger,
and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen,
which had been brought up with
Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
