in our quiet hours of sleep
mostly when 3.33...

Churning the soil downriver
Silencing the calm quiver
Halting the anaesthetic shiver
This fissure in the earth was the sliver of hope in this dearth
A cool spring, the fuel to my being

That something wasn’t quite right
It’s why I‘d gone to the surgery that day

the sun will rise, the sun will set;

August AlliterationAfter July abdicates, august August arrives,
and the year advances, as annually agreed.
After assessing alternative alternatives and accords,
as anticipated, no other affirmative alternative is advanced.

People gaping through windows at chaos again,
The box in the corner shows all that was done
From multiple angles, repeat and re-run.

Balding walls restricting transit
