Free, Blind and Limping Verse

Everything is tucked in place

And my dinghy is securely docked.

 

All that’s left is clean and rearrange

And nobody cares when it’s done.

 

I found an abandoned book

On English Literature in the basement.

 

Will read it if I ever remember

Where I put the damned thing.

 

The Navajo Spirit Guide told me

“Now….before it’s too late.”

 

I should have read that yesterday

Because now it’s hopelessly gone.

 

We’re here because we’re here

Because we’re here. Because we’re here.

 

Truer words were never spoken.
