August, 2003

3:15 a.m.     inside 2905 elm street


unshackled

flattened by the events

what was possible

so we came home

we came home

quietly not surreptitiously

a proper table
a proper time

tardy in everything
unable to acclimate
to be absolved
to open a letter

much less advance

ante up or pay down
on a prior promise

the premise cracked
by a divergence

i keep going back
to the year they were lost
wondering if there'll be a quiz
or if the previously
scheduled programming shall resume
