Erasure Poems While Waiting for Sushi

Earth without directions
the gyroscope said
the stunt identified spending hours under water



a beggar plays a penny
his collection honest
police thought it was costume jewelry
said the ring was a proposal
claimed after days



making troops making music
marketing music
dealership says sad that
war could make harmonicas handy
anyone can play to some degree

**hi amber,
it's monday morning & we're in astoria oregon. we saw a sunken ship & abandoned baracks.

today we go somewhere else. i hope your puyallup to seattle trainride is stupendous. i like you're erasure poem & was fun to read when i woke up. i like the word gyroscope. i also like costume jewelry.

where did you get the sushi?

i got the sushi at ichiban, about 5 blocks from my parents house. it is a japanese restaraunt run by koreans. they make decent sushi. fun sushi at least.

thank you for reading. thank you for my poem.
