AS WE ARE
Before he drives off, my friend asks,
‘Do you remember desperate times?’
All day, so much speech, so little
meaning, parallelisms on rhetorical
bars. ‘I am adjustable,’ say the shorts’
monologic care tag. As we are.
Adamson to Creeley, ‘These days
we’re just words away from death.’
Here I play my lexicon kit, constructing,
melodic, breath and tongue whistling
above the rattle-tattle of my bones.
