Oracles

A secret is granted any curb captain listening. To speak rarely and with roots. Blake wears a hardhat, drives a forklift for Metal Products. Whitman collects unemployment in the mail. New words are mined coal. They are the drink from bags, the suicide in jail, and the housekeeper called only by her first name. Keeping pace with a secret at the speed of light is the wisdom felt on crowded subways.
