…out of line
I did not find it in-between
‘til there it was, and it alone seen
in space provided sense has swollen
shut to all and kept from fallin
Here sat a warmth that embraces its own
market of flesh but ration of bone
portion enough for grass not known greener
experience though sits a bit leaner
Simple is pleasant and pleasant is fine
but somehow a piece steps out of line
placed under the nose for sniff, say hello
an addition this, and with it I go
Sitting, rest easy, but doing so higher
a little more blood pump and no sign of tire
ditch this reserve, be not so humble
these are the moments that make reason stumble.
