“i was enveloped in numbness, and absence of feeling so deep the bottom was lost from view” ― haruki murakami, the wind-up bird chronicle
enveloped in pain
by something that knows
no name
don't give it house room
turn up the
volume
and just
dance

in the space, of a day
what would you say
all the things, you wanted to say
those things about love and longing, fancies and fears
things about war and want, famines and floods
or, maybe just a few words about the space
the space where she lay
in just the space
of a day
(for mara eastern’s poetry 101 rehab – day)
the early bird
catches the worm
the early truck
worms its way
through
the
crud
