poem by the hour,
no need to shower
us thus

or else it would be a
Poem~By~The~Minute

look at the banner photo,
see the tablet self composing,
the list of would-be,
coming soon someday,
an arms length long
list of almost finished compositions,
composing me in motion

in the meantime, a sip of
milky coffee between

when I tell her it's drafty, she says,
How Many?
