Ribcage

lvii

let me tell

you that it

did happen

very fast, as

if i was in

a whirlwhind

against the

oceans and

the sunlight;

a book fell

from my grasp

and this note

fell out of

page fifty-one,

where it speaks

of present tenses

of verbs; oh how

it came to me:

that i should

act now than

later for it

might be

too late,

      too soon

               too late
