stilted disjointed over-easy
soft and almost slackened
finding balance and balance again
the old walk and stumble
getting hotter and hotter funny
you never felt that way yourself
before this resting
in a state of conscious abandon
just for a moment tipping
toward fortune only a problem
if someone’s watching you
almost dropped into page-long
ecstasy sinking like gneiss
into deep-sucking silt so don’t
plumb it this lost afternoon
when language is all ears
