Poems
Mar 2018
Compression
Stackable living
hackable lives
On top of each other
like bees in a hive
Inside a box
hard corners to know
A neighbor above
a neighbor below
Stackable moments
fractional lies
The walls serve two masters
invasion implied
All differences measured
in bedrooms and floors
A blueprinted nightmare
its maze underscored
Stackable meaning
the truth wearing thin
Its elevator stuck
stairs covered in sin
The higher you climb
the farther you fall
Stackable living
—the death of us all
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2018)
