Determined to enjoy the chaos that upturns us, or
to leave it all behind, or cut 
the thread evenly.

A real treatise on vagrancy, if heaven is too far 
to imagine.

Existing as perpetual  matter.
Bones, hammer, oxidized linen, bound up and lit
as an olive grove.

What wisdom can be afforded on days that allow 
a certain cut of meat.
