Rediscovering Richard Brautigan

I was just rediscovering Richard Brautigan's poems which I think are just marvelous, so here's a couple to share:

"Finding Is Losing Something Else"

Finding is losing something else.
I think about, perhaps even mourn,
what I lost to find this.


"Impasse"

I talked a good hello
but she talked an even
better good-bye


"The Amelia Earhart Pancake"

I have been unable to find a poem
for this title. I've spent years
looking for one and now I'm giving
up.
