I get impatient over everything
(the rain’s impact is shotgun-shaped)
worry’s sated by one sip
when it needs a bottomless glass
(a minute’s revision is decisive enough)
touched raspy and stilled
an overt blurt topped by a spill
(come run away with me)
she
says don’t lose your shoes
yet
(we’ve) got everything to tie
impatience lingers foggy
like windows (un-
deployed) raising
a toast to sunshine
(while toast
breads)
dismissed like this
I get crabby over small failings
torn into flesh
(a whatever limped through in haste)
I (whose only eyes a once)
am buttered lately (the same
as it always is) the same
instance of now
(instead mechanical horses are hampered with well-oiled cramps)
built (owing to a
glitch in the momentum) like
a done without a does
shifting
things in order
trusting (so) to a whistling (sort
of)
try
to-
wards off putting
(off) letting go
a grip on the same-
ness
(stifled or struckout or
slurred like oil slicked on puddled rainwater—
choosen—
bunched cloudy runny rainbow-
y)
of being
ended
with a
hoot or
a hip without
a hoora-
