the scene as seen from the afternoon up over the afterschool bridge two boys two friends ahead of me turn back they see someone I don’t turn around I don’t know but it must be some boy they don’t like or some girl they don’t like or some boy they like or some girl they like and so they run away throwing their heads backward to see how fast they are escaping from this whoever and then they are tired of running less than a minute in maybe thirty seconds and they hang over the railing looking at the tracks and glancing back they realize whoever is too far away to worry about and so on they go crossing the bridge until one looks back and sees whoever is closer and so they run again repeat repeat but finally whoever catches up but only with one and he takes this one by the arm and I think it’s sweet the enmity washed away but whoever points two fingers at his captive’s head and marches him forward to his fellow soldier willing to make a deal but none too soft and I am disappointed and move on not running but not looking back

another scene as seen from the narrow sidewalk behind the building before the gardens two couples or might be and three beers two sitting one bouquet standing up looking professionally distracted but still watching the standing gangly-armed teenager gesturing with his beer she is waiting to see something that might not be there but she does not walk away

I should be asleep I should be just keeping my own counsel dancing like a damsel high up on distress there’s a dress and it tore there’s a foot and it’s sort but in the meantime my neck will correct itself soon enough we have our health and that’s enough we have the bread it’s already tough but this is how we do and this is how we chew longer than we’d like do to but if there’s to be swallowing then the directions to be following are printed on the label are lying on the table we are flying when we’re able and the rest of the time the bus does fine and the train even better though depending on the weather the snow might let one go and keep the other there’re so many mothers and the fathers in the pictures are quite sure that everything will develop as it ought to and they’ve thought through the alternatives but the best choice to rejoice in is sleeping right now and how and so it will be for so it is written and now I am smitten with the idea bitten with it clear through to morning

we are talking we are walking through the paces we are changing our graces our silverware there’s no way to compare ashes to oranges or apples to dust we must entrust ourselves to the present there’s nothing left to give to the past and the future has no pockets we’ve locked it up we’ve swallowed the key and we’re wondering where the subject went the concrete tent I thought I’d build is easily spilled over by an abstract wind a wave that brings confusion and illusions of sense I thought I’d mention this I thought I’d steal a kiss from the window no pane no view no gain no truth we are shaking our teeth back and forth coursing like reindeer through the salad we are taking up ballads and singing them into our mirrors nothing clearer than that nothing I want in a hat could ever tell it all nothing like a ball to bounce with a story to trounce fits of remembrance I have a temperature I have a fir tree and a popcorn shoe I am telling you there are other ways to live but if there’s something you’d want to give for an ounce of gold I’d give it to him I’d swim it across the floss and into the books we’re looking for a miracle we’re already on the sequel and there’s no equal sign here no steer-clear jigsaw from all you saw and all you know the snow keeps coming and the buzzards keep humming with hard-edged lips sending their tips toppling and their stocks locked into barrels the bull marked it and the bear charted the tops the twenty the most likely to succeed in needed reasoning we are seasoning the salt we’re worth the earth that won’t grow we know ourselves to be self-evident and we are equal we are full of thoughts that will not sleep the monkey mind that keeps itself swinging bringing wonder to the plunders of the world the thunder that’s hurled itself with lightning-shy speed needs no answer takes nothing to task leaves nothing to chance and dances with one foot in the air until the tension falls again

on the way up there is sky but also heels and there is no way down it’s impossible to imagine a reversal of these travails on the same trail trying and true and doing the best that anyone can stand to handle can’t hold a candle to that sort of trying buying out all the stores with an attractive force of this window across the yard trying hard to distract from the vague muscles cracked out of uselessness pressing into motion devoting themselves to a higher cause pausing to consider the pleasure of straightened legs not folded pegs pulling up and pushing forward the glorious reward is itself and health has little to do with wishing twisting sense from gravity and taking more than your fair share I’d have farewelled that mission with more pieces missing if I hadn’t had the blissful sense to ignore physical warnings and impatient churnings what about and what if and can you imagine well yes and that’s the problem and there’s no time for real solving just doing and putting so much into twisting ankles and craning necks to see what’s next on the ground suddenly surrounded by sky in three sides we are trying to keep our heads above water and so we are and so we’re far above sea level and it’s possible I’ll never be up here again standing at such an angle trying not to dangle there is terror and there is panorama there’s a camera waiting to blow away waiting to have its say and point and click and cluck about that icier peak the next one up and cupping a heart in hands there’s nowhere to stand and no kind of balance for this sort of challenge I can stand in a tree but I cannot fall with grace I can race my face against my feet hoping to meet some shrub I can grab some drab but beautiful obstacle but here there are none here there is sun and sometimes shadow the wind brings these in turn and the churned-up snow grows faster with each hurtling disaster of adolescence in disguise hiding surprise and patience in the same pocket locking up and bending my head instead of leading I’m heeding quietly I have no stick I have no pinprick of an inkling of what I was thinking in coming so high but there’s no way that I can get out and no doubt the elevator isn’t coming and the hovercraft’s be slumming to pick up this kind of cargo at a standstill so with two hands full of air and uncertainty this is how I go down

leaning toward the weather that’s not now not ever going in the right direction we make corrections you take direction well but that’s not your only feature there’s more than meets your eye at the first potato we’ve got rows to mow but not much to show for how long it’s already been we’re swimming backward and you’ve got to know how hard that is but it’s easier than drowning which is one way to look at it to book a bit differently we’ve spent our leisure hours our candled flowers all along the windowsill the garden fills itself with light and birds glide by in constant surprise at the growth of color an expansion plan poorly explained to all who remain nearby in the satellite positions the raindrops glisten on a nostalgic window bringing the curtain closed and again open hoping for remembering to turn into reality the scandals of a thousand scarves the harbor that never closes and the roses that will not wilt I’m filled up with suggestions but the alternative corrections seem too mean to spout from this mouth if I had to tell you differently you’d rather not listen if I had to give you everything I’d throw the kitchen sink in but luckily as it seems you’re happy enough with dreams of something better and walking away that’s what you take and riding away you take your mistakes and toss them out the window higher and lighter through the clouds nothing’s allowed to touch you now and off you go and through and around and there’s nothing for me in that old town there’s nothing there to tie me down and there’s nothing left to keep the space warm safe laced with irony she stops tightening and turns away playing it cool there’s no fooling these fingers and my mind says what it wants though this isn’t what I’m thinking of there’s no way though to wear a glove thick enough to keep my fingers from telling on my mind and in the meantime it’s just fine to write to myself to toast my own health and to toss it onto the field in an ivy league tradition in an ancient stadium by American standards which is just what we’ve been handed for the lateness with which we landed

if the conditional tense takes too long to turn to Australia much less new Zealand I’ve got the feeling that the thunder might rumble the stumbling might fumble into an acceptable remark it’s too early dark for the way I’d like to think but it’s too fuzzybrained for a day that’s on the blink about to be exhausted tossed sloshingly from the train throw the hat up the stairs throw dad up the stairs his hat we have sat up we have listened and while walking across the otherway courtyard at dusk I saw ping-pong underway which was a surprise to say something like the least but the feast was underway in the already dark and the parked-beside spectators were weighing in dangerously close as you’d suppose they’d have to be to plainly see what was happening all the trappings of a comedy upcoming up still the ball coming straight back and bouncing the turns waited for the strategy concentrated on or maybe not we’ve easily bought our tickets for night time but a thin dime of dusk keeps the sliver of light filtering through clouds loud enough to keep the game going but when the coin drops the ball will too and it’s anyone’s guess if it’ll be found before morning

early to bed and early laundry the quandary that spells us incorrectly that waits us out like staff hoping to turn down the covers or take away your salad plate we take turns feigning importance and chiding each other now now and then then but it’s a break for spring to come and a thumb in the ear at winter we’re almost clear of that we’ve almost leapt that catways over the fence I can’t help but mention the growing attention being paid to spades and the calling of them that but we scatter ourselves at each others’ doors and chorus songs of innocence and William blake we take our situations too seriously bemoan the facts the life the cause the strife and also our dirty clothes indisposed to take care of themselves they toast their own healths at the bottom of the closets the cupboards the shafas and other foreign words I am afraid of war and also its sources the causes too debatable the facts too easily statable and it’s a fall from grace it’s an easy chase around the corner the looking for reasons the defining of treasons in clear-cut terror the mirror set too far away to look into much less step through we’re breaking more pieces of more hearts and yes that one’s a cover no it’s really Janis and yes you’re a different planet away if you didn’t see that coming if you didn’t hear that humming numbing senses from remote directions too late to make corrections jumping in the middle of someone else’s fiddle solo more like a duet but maybe yet it’ll be a symphony the crash and the boom and the bang hanging harshly in the air as the audience stares with open mouths and the critics shake their heads there’s something to be said for caution and there’s more to be said for fairness but whose turn it is to decide is mighty vague from this angle we try and we fandangle our way through various piles of facts we can’t help but counteract our own suppositions with our push to do what’s right because the day and the night have two different views we hold these truths to be inscrutable but poorly elocutable to make up a word what I’ve heard worries me what I see is a wonder what I fear is a blunder and a can’t be right wrong song but we’ll wish for the best and we’ll grade all the tests at least we’re not cheating but with preferential seating it’s hard to tell what the other students think as the pencils clink down sinking into contemplation in the hallway as the marks are etched in pen

today there was spelling and if you believe you can make it possibly cheesier than necessary it takes an ego to build a village out of your own character the charter harder to achieve the breathing lighter in the night as your mallow goes shallow whatever that means however those schemes are made to roll out we are pouting in our study guides but we cannot hide our enthusiasm for truisms we are blue in the face we are disgracing others’ makers we are not forsaking we are not takers we are speaking of ourselves grandly from an unnecessarily lofty perspective though we each have prime directives sometimes we gamble sometimes we scramble through the cupboards looking for the eggs sometimes we whip our legs with sideways motions we are the masters of our own emotions but patience is too true a virtue to keep in check it’s a home that’s wrecked before it’s built it’s a crime that’s milk before it’s spilt we have tire tracks across the front lawn but we are yawningly interested in continuing the story the lesser glory of the greater escape the bus that turns the next corner searching for mourners before the funeral pulling them out of their complacent catalogs hung high in the rafters like crafty hammocks and more assorted millionaires the stares we receive and the anthems we believe are too colorful for transcription but like sauce ready to be dipped in we see the world around glimmering in sound and rippling light eager for the chance

I don’t know if you remember but there was weather once and we moaned and we had stones to throw but they fell back down from the air for some reason we cried treason but the seasons changed anyway rearranged steady gazes back and forth from north to secondhand bookstores the glorious dust that makes me sick the beakers of old encyclopedias cooking up something some old-fashioned facts we cannot relax even though our taxes are not paid we strayed from the theme slightly we go to bed nightly but even when our hair gets curled we’re waiting for the other shoe to be ironed I’m fine and how is your kangaroo how are the symbols we’ve nimbly avoided hurrying along just strong-arming the tin man and crowing over the lion there’s an assignment but I didn’t write it yet there’s an answer and a wet-bent used-up cigarette let’s redirect our attention let’s give cause for pause I am tired we are all fired and when I am hiring again I’m not sure I’ll let you know there may be no room to grow after all those renovations after all those saving nations the graces the manners the under-fire hammers and how can I say no to doves even though yes that’s what I mean and even though yes it’s not my scene to agree to such an awkward situation where I find no confrontation possible nor continuation plausible I will think on this I will turn that quiz off until I have an answer but in the meantime dancer is my favorite reindeer and other questions will take their turns earning interest we are delivering ourselves from health and safety we are taking matters into our own handlebar moustaches and we are riding bikes while no one’s looking I am cooking up a pot full of something else but I cannot taste last night’s dinner without shaking my head and wondering who and why and surprised by the results like swallowing somersaults and then misspelling all the contagious names jumping out of their frames and forcing their hot breath into your confusion this is an illusion and now you know this is a ticket and I’m going to the show this is a rooster and too soon we’ll hear him crow this is the ending and so now I have to go
