Always measure
leering opera
joyfully shaken
branched from worry
into strength; dreams
begun interlaced as palms
Time has shrunk enough
for us to rubble these roses
mischievous and greyish-haint
green-risen drifts of sprung flakes
endometric such that we
bury love in nature
conducting elicitous rites
Regretfully-informed and spiritualized
under the slipped tongue of a pilgrim
do I console you and guide your needs
on home to my gladware
<p align="right">and fetching oven<br>
leaning onto these grounds</p>
Looking hungry, foxing round, landing
<p align="center">the rest in the measure of these hips<br>
with triggers, tension, instructions for men<br>
to muster their humanity and listen to the rhythm</p>
Within our predilections rest the auguries
of sweat trained into our parents' violence
as the pendulum bisects a house predestined to groan
<p align="right">from cause and effort<br>
from the falling waters of realization<br>
from measuring ability to love<br>
in timely satisfactions of debt</p>
