this poem has been aged
for no less than eighteen months
in an old barn, in an oaken cask
nestled in a wormed wood stall
with an earthen floor and
kept at a steady temperature
despite a few dusty sunbeams
breaking through the slats in the wall
with an ol' Tom cat who guards
the wood and the words
ready to howl his approval
