loosen my mind
working fluid changed
oiled and stinging new
nettles growing up my spine
need a weeding; yank them out
from their roots
and give them a new home
in my fingertips
stretch out the tendons
like elastic, by plucking at
them as if
tuning a guitar
make the world's worst song
and start again
as the poet born yesterday
