I asked the
Bouncing ball
What time
The light bulbs
Go out?
A washtub of ghosts, said the ball
It’s just
A squeeze of light, the darling blink of darkness,
Came the second reply
The sleeping cat is a fat chance
The dollar amount is traffic
The atoms are a taste test
Genes are the mocking call
In cursive, beware
naïve haircuts 
Your poetry is always such a pleasure to read.

Strange and beautiful. It reminds me a bit of the poetry of Charles Simic.
