in every recipe
there's embarrassment
of the obvious
like a steady rain
for hours now
needs the freedom
to keep going
&
when the wind
shakes
the bowelsdon't believe it
until all the dues
have been paid
a promise
is nothing but another schedule
that can change
scribble
down everything
remember
nothingevery answer is really a question
pick through the remnants
& if the thrift store closes early
keep your backpack empty
the sidewalks
are still open
