One Concept

Experienced words, thick, focused,

vague, persistent, simple, suspicious,

useless memories, excuses, excuses,

underlining of decorum, supposedly stones

supposedly houses, weapons, doorknobs

water pitcher handle, vase on the table,

made bed, smoke. Words that

you used to strike the air, the wood, the marble,

and you type them on paper, nothing, death.


Put on your tie tighter. This is the way.

Keep quiet. Wait. This way. This way.

Late, late, in the narrow hollowness, there

behind the stairway, glued to the wall.
