“Punchlines”
Time catches
us all
in a fist
of rage
a graph
designed for
devouring
its prey.
Reconstructing
veins that twist
like oak trees
shackled beneath
laundry and dirt
Parallels of action
separated from thought
nothing falls that isn’t forced
Blessed are the eardrums,
they’ve been through hell
material comforts
shoulders for shelter
and moments of triumph
until the mind sinks from the weight
of knowledge and space
wormholes and a hefty court case
Time catches
us all
in a deep
embrace
a graph
designed for
devouring
its prey.
