Dorchester, MA

Carryover.
A truth in which it never
adds up, never divisible into
whole integers.  Who is keeping
me here counting and splitting
the difference?

Full disclosure
whosoever believes does so at
her own risk.

Sugarcoated
quite capable of cursing instead,
small summaries come out of my mouth
little squishy jelly
donuts that muffle my
words.

Tarry
What's the hurry?  The RR tracks point
one way, the dirt road another, and
while you fume, you miss the point
that no train's been here for years.

Maneuverable
Turn on a dime before telling anybody
state-of-the-art technology directs you
toward its ends.  A crumpled map with
directions for when to cross the street
during a parade.  Vehicles with secret
instructions: get out and walk.
