Mon frere. The dewey charms Now dangling arms outside the kitchen Window air. Once akimbo and Fanning the crowd, Perhaps it got too loud Or maybe too quiet, A strangling diet Of Self parody. Well, now you’re free To find whatever Kept you blind Yet searching The movie houses laughing In burbs and towns. That upside frown Wants approval To feel love, A place above Sensation, A careful orchestration, Sonata Oblongata. Empty highway stretching Abandoned, now convalescing And left to wonder What put asunder The room Between you And what you needed. 2/23/21

And oh what thoughts We'll miss. Serving our fate, With instant comfort on a plate. Igloo
