reworkings
you’ve been there
how many times now
countless
countless times
starting way back when
when the birds
first learned to sing
and someone
somewhere
invented lemonade
it seems we’re
just starting
to rework the garden
shredding the soil
and germinating
new seeds
the ones we found
in the far corner
at the market
price tag missing
it’s incredibly easy
to get lost
no matter
where you are
no matter
if you’re falling off
the edge of the earth
or spinning madly
inside a top
with endless energy
may two thousand twenty
