. . . no one gets to rest on the structure
no one ever forgets their first agreement with pain
or how eagerness & joy faded on noiseless feet

the frequently lethal poetry is both wicked & beyond
& the using of it to keep warm just one more day
until looking over the edge while traveling with flowers & the last of the bread,
the moment when it gets all too easy

Sunken ships--the rats calling the place home didn't make it out either--the oldest daughter didn't like me to begin with and Momma didn't know what to do with my love in the corral--I decided not to wait around for the movie and headed for Arizona where I met Jaci--she liked me pretty much and was into history--I told her I would meet her in the Indian ruins that night for love in the dust--

she said, "oooooooooo that makes me so wet!"

How did I do, Jay? Is this what you were looking for?
