Art Bureau's Highball Reading Series
Our main focus is publishing art books, but occasionally a poet whispers in our ears, and a chapbook is produced.

CASINO

The colours wander
but I am still.

There's red
in your hand, God...

Another game of poker
you cannot face.

SYNCHRONIZATION
We have adjusted to the Greek heat and tempo
but in different ways.

Since I always take a siesta in the afternoon,
I usually wake up early in the morning while
my family goes on sleeping.

So every morning I have two or three hours
to myself when I can write and paint and read.

And in the afternoon in the hotel room,
Marie and William have two hours when
they can listen to me snoring.
