Ashbery's first five books are somewhat innovative, otherwise I don't understand this huge attraction at all

Thank you, whoever you are. It is thrilling
to understand
that Ashbery can be located
in the same indefinite space
as a skate boarding
bull dog. And I mean this.

A coin engraved with Ashbery's face
takes the elevator to innocence,
where Storybook's coffee inundates
a vampyr in a raincoat, a vampyr
who caresses and clings to stoplights
reflected in a mirrory cigarette
floating into your mind.
