for A.M.
Taking it slow controls the weather.
Citizens are gathered up and bit by bit
Tossed into major and minor piles
Of gentleman road dust.
Some constructions are paper,
Some fancy sand.
Some ask a person to hold on
Way too long.
We both have haloes now
From all the brutality
And waiting.
But I must have you know,
In poems and in weather:
My ness is heavily you.
