That Feeling
the rope was
at least
twenty
five
feet and mine
fifty eight but
the slack
makes
me think that
miss calculation
was made and being
afraid of
losing her
i pull to pull
her up but
there is no
weight so afraid
i afraidly wait and
then pull a little
to pick up
her
and at that
exact moment
in time
timing her assent
the umbilical
cord
has turned
onto into the staff
of a chord accordingly
to the composer's
ear perhaps
sounding
like something
that has gone
extinct and is
dying
but not
knows why
so the
orchestral
score shows
me in
cat years
three out of
nine
and so
with four
more
to go i
think i will
live in
a city in
Ecuador
