Reached for my bag of darkness
this morning
To pull out some slimy lump
And smear it across the page
Slapdash as usual
Only it's not there
my bag of wallow
and push
Have-to's, shoulds an'
can't-face-'ems
Do you have it?
Yes, I see you have yours
No need
ta clutch it
so tight now
Not sure
How hard
I'll look
As I'm unclear now
As to why I have it
Though I recall
being here before
and, alas
It did turn up
again
Perhaps
I should make
and fill a bag
with lightness
reach for that
