MEMORIES
ENDLESSLY
AS ENTRIES
AS SEAS SLOSHING
SO PLENTIFULLY
WASHING
AS CENTURIES
AS ASH
AS EVENTUALLY
AT LAST
AS THE CURVATURE
OF THE ATLAS
CIRCULAR IN NATURE
IN NURTURE
IT INVENTS US
HURTLES US
’ROUND A STAR
IT PULLS OUR
SENSES HERE
NEAR THE SUN
NEAR THE ENTRANCE
OF ILLUSION
SPUN
LIKE A FLAT NICKEL
CAN APPEAR
SPHERICAL
THAT TRICK WILL
EXPOSE
HOW IT ALL GOES
AROUND
HOW IT ALL FALLS
DOWN
I SUPPOSE
IF LIFE
GROWS
FROM THE INANIMATE GROUND
THEN IT CAN
ALSO FOLLOW
OUR LAST
HOUR GLASSED
GRAIN OF SAND
WITH THE SOUL
SANS SOUND
(BUT IT LANDS
IT LANDS
LIKE A DRUM ROLL!)

Love life
love its
continuance
give into its
intuit
influence

BECAUSE

crashes happen fast
even as you reach for the seat belt clasp
before it latches
SNAP
EVERYTHING YOU’VE EVER KNOWN LAPsES
COLLAPSES
that’s when it happens
and it never lasts
…all the laughing…
make sure
you take your
FULL GRASP
before it passes
