We Are in Sarasota
and there is sun impossible not to be
happier New York cold and cold
we left all our coats in the car Mark's house in the middle
of moss and trees and then there is water. This morning
Ted came by to see Mark and he read
Mark's FODMAP list outloud FODMAP means
fermentable sugars which contribute to gas
these are the foods we shouldn't eat said Ted the stranger
who'd been in investment in Canada
No Apples No Pears No Watermelons
recited Ted in a loud voice and I was happy because
Ted and Sarasota and his food recitation are a poem
