Four Visions of the Gap Year
I.
I fill in the whole
with caveats left
over from
white sun.
When you have a moment
would you teach me
to pay back
this quality of attention?
What I touch
I read
in retro:
watch.
Brace-
let, hand.
Histories
absorbed to recitation.
II.
Who cleans
up after
rain
light?
How does both
differ from
bother?
Do you
moth or
mother, according
to your lean-
to resumé?
What happens
here
happens
repeatedly
III.
It was as if
today had to
shift: occurring
versus,
having occurred.
Enrolling
in a street
curriculum,
bred dia-
tribes.
The wind meant
something.
Touch of the side-
rails made the map
dots real.
IV.
A cartel affords
safe lunges
into future
obvious.
Join versus
not join. Ping
tones ramp
up daisy lanes.
Are you amenable
or just commendable?
I am finding
language finds me.
That I may retire
into addictive
making, that I
might afford the shelter.
very nice!
