Quoted By:
When Ceasar’s Mushroom is in Season… by Paul Reekie
When Caesar’s mushroom is in season
It is the reversal of the mushroom season
As Caesar’s mushroom comes in March
The mushroom season is in September
Six months earlier
On half hear
Equinoctal
Autumnal to vernal
Do you hope for more
Than a better balance
Between fear and desire
It’ll only be the straying
That finds the path direct
Neither in the woods nor in the field
No robes, like Ceasar’s, trimmed with purple
Rather an entire street trimmed with purple
And every door in it
Wrapped in a different sort of Christmas paper
The September mushrooms of midnight
Show the rhymes of vision
Can’t move for tripping over them
Wipe your tapes
Wipe your tapes with lighting
