on reading a poem about james joyce

 on reading a poem about james joyce 

remember barley sugar

those sticks of platted sunshine 

licked in a childhood’s passing

well this poem is 

that stick of platted sunbeams 

licked through the flickering leaves 

of past smiles smeared my dear

by the sweet blear of tears

that read me
