or: Impatient User Problems
enough is never enough
so I keep returning or
so I pretend:
an empty chair, a blank space
on the table; your words make my hands
funny; I pretend this is mine, so
this heat doesn't count, I pretend
I will fumble, I pretend
instead . . . morning, instead
the road ahead
swallows me up
spits me out
I keep returning, I listen intently
so I can sing these words later a different wrong this time
in my head
some dark synthesis
swallows me up:
impatient click impatient
click impatient click
sink, swim
repeat
