In a dramatic
turn of events
Dennis Willis Sep 2021
I waited until
Waiting uncomfortably
wait wait wait
and hold still

park it you

Maybe I'm a draft
of I imagine
the hope bringer

I sulk not
oh wait
I sulk
differently
and over
that too
I sulk
Ooomph
Don't you
Ok Ok
Ahll stop sulking
doom up for you

there

Much more many things
including mostly nothing
than me

An uneasy warbling sound
strung to your inner ear
from here

Clinging to a mattress as if
it meant to fall up from here
through me

Using my time well 'twer
a refrigerator magnet
holding firm

Erupting or blossoming
from aptly named carpet
another diem

Well
I am not staying
where things
make sense
Wait
What am I saying
What am I missing
I don't want them
to make sense
I want them
to wondrously
confound me

Check

trying to be silent
arranging chairs>

I know that I'm operating
egregiously
uh we must flea
eh, free just me
in effect of lee
and am off the rails
that's not where they go
I just can't see that's me
nice off the rails softly
chumbling everything up
but listen sorry don't why
circulating between sips
behind the curtain quips
looky at that me and you
guffaw, you...<Rorschach test>
did you see your you there
