The calming echo in the house
belies the demons and all
the pent up energy leftunspent, unfulfilled, is
it destiny that has escaped you?
our madness undresses.you
make
coffeethink nothing of it.
Remember 7am in the World of Waking
as kids our parents would workin the world and we
never given toys.
if you'd give me one nowi would not know what
to do with it.
We'd always know you'd come homeby the sound of careless whistling
like nothing
was wrong in the universeand that was enough
enough
enough
