dark room

i fell into this
and stumbled when i rose, and
then i learned to walk

centrifugally simple

when it rains, it rains
and when you're up, you're up; come,
keep it spinning 'round

city climb

alleeoop! swing up
put your weight into it, breathe
one foot at a time

do you?

you could color skies
with your pretty open eyes,
pyramid at will

repeat

notice when you swell
for the smallest happy thing–
add it to a list

stare at it fondly
see it, then throw it away
know what moves you; move

take a number

don't leave an ink stain

on my brand new hard wood chair
i want to sit there.
