Garland
Philippe Soupault
Wednesday aboard a boat
and you saturday like a pennant
the days are wreathed with crowns as well
like kings and like the dead
my hand light as a kiss
rests on their fettered brows
A child bawls over her doll
and everything's about to start over
monday and tuesday without scruples
These four thursdays out of work
luck's quicksilver shadow
cloth of desire
O Sunday silent snake
