I know there are limits even ever
after limits because I am
there must
be I just
don’t know for sure where and
how my love knows
always forever and
yesterday so I pay bills and
taxes over
our
laundered quilt cover with unknown
count of one-two-
thread
flagging emails questions slumber swipe blathering peals of
thunder rolling tears
tempestuous fears
Laughter, after all.
Damp sheets and wet
again, pattering feet
down and up and down and
up, walk the scratched planks of wood against
imagined monsters, incorporated away
a pallor about every menacing corner
exhausted above, bottom
lines chart course through
an otherness wild
dense with paucity.
Ignore at perilous bliss, in-voices
voices, whisper forgetting
about forgetting after and
only after learning after
forgetting again to learn
a double helix tending
in finity and to beyond
less the unknown but here
you are so
I am now.
