…even sleep doesn’t help
A stanza or
a paragraph?
Squeeze word lemons
to drink and laugh.
Champion the
atomic art:
small poetry
to finish start.
Those twists of breath —
sounds in a herd.
Some make good sense
yet sing absurd.
Beyond short poems
are manuscripts
that work me to
metastasis.
NOTE: “Don’t explain.”
