I sprinted for juxtaposition, swore
to shelf & page, by god, I’ll go blog
something keyboarded & scratch
my dreams in satellite
then cops knocked & Belfast
not to mention all that being
married & to do, ta-da, the grind
the cemeteries & signatures, certainly
there were long forms buried
in Tuesdays & saturnalia
& so much shorthand loafing
for daily crumb to bomb/bread
& nada, again resolving to the work
before the blasting caps
then, it’s December &
what have I done:
stargazed & grew
one heirloom tomato
