I opened a pistashio...

Pop-
ping shell;

the tomaley
of a lobster

leaping out,
f

brains turning over,
set loose--

maybe set free--
twisting for a moment,

turning for a moment
in the breeze.

I thought you gave the word "tomaley" to me??? I love the strange interconnection - nut, lobster, cone.

Thanks again for teaching the class. You got great feedback from the students today ...
