tossed.
too shocking to see
lamented & laminated, lost &
BOSSED, tossed, left out & churning, running for the toss off
she crept dangerously through the night
hating font & word constructs
but loving stevens,
shaking her head
wondering about the trouble, trouble, trouble
feeling claustrophobic & suffused with anxiety & cinnamon sticks
as she reached the door, grasped the handle,
¾ quarter turn, she felt the vibrations of the grasshopper rubbing its legs & about-faced into the evading night that sank in submarine fashion
down she wished, sweet rambling night, take me with you.
