Song
You keep poking at it
finger, drill, snout & awl
till you find yourself at the back
of the shed
flush against some wall
Sing the song of homing
sing it once more
con brio
as the bright wind whips
the banners and shiny foil
—Are you an Ex-is-ten-tial-ist,
Mr. Mister?
—0, no, no,
I would prefer to think
of myself, ahem,
as a Collision-Ecstasist,
— You undress on impact,
sir?
—0, hohohoho,
not no more.
