Smartypants Ambivalence Decree


             (for Truck)

I am hardly possibility. A separate manufacture long only half heard
I said let's start with the birds. I could return to that sweater and not asking
mute resistance I could dissolve. A feeling so sharp it goes right through
the palms of our hands as we gesture—surrender. I give in to that exact blue.

Several miles east of exit 0, a conversation we did not have. I am sort of
culpability. I depend on the direction of the class struggle. Stumbling artifact it seemed
as good a place as any. In a quaint reversal I forgot to tell you
sometimes the bus turns into a different bus. Sometimes when night falls it
takes us with it. Sometimes it might never end.

Be ruthless when the time comes to take your turn. Be brilliant. Fall repeatedly. I too
sometimes "breathe." After the fact or after a fashion, I sometimes sigh. Sometimes simply decay.
