(A Poem)
Madeleine Anderson – STAFF WRITER
hoop and stick is -0
circle wanton as line
ascends his pyramid
axle and wheel
bone bound to her
flexible ball companion
number one! and zero
gabbing oh! lingua line
link our howls
hoop and stick is the filter of negation
glass lenses fighting their
eye formed frame
long sound against short
checkered and the checkers
line cutting our loop,
line abandoning our loop
or
line leading out of our spindle
