On the Cover Art of Andre Breton's Nadja (Livre de poche ed.)

Hope starts at the tips 
and runs the length  
of the body
 
a digital voice  
proclaims "I would kill
a million photostatic
Chinamen for a glass of water."

With grenadine on the mind,  
a perfect outfit for the   
Place de la Concorde.  
  
One heart, beating as  
it strums on a gut-strung guitar,  
playing variations on a nightgown  
in flaming madness.  

Here is the pocket-sized addiction
of Kruger's own neon grotto nightmares-
but only their beginning.  
 
Whenceforth hand-eye 
handshakes will again
have some intrinsic value
