split

enjoying a portion
with slight tugging
days that go on
for longer than needed
ending with a well
and wanting to stop
time again
refresh this fulcrum
back to tick
after falling for tock
small screwdrivers
and monocled makers
with patience
and apparently
time
on its side

paralyzed and staring
into great adventure
which looks a bit threatening
sideways
the world on stake
at large variance
sans vacuum
horizon as rocket ship
split screen
what we watch we become
slipping in the direction of easy
holes missing screws
screws missing thread
thread missing rib
pegs squeezed for temperance
moderation not modicum
a place to fill with sand
where anything would do
