FEELING TUESDAY AFTERNOON

 

feeling Tuesday afternoon

so clichéd;

not sure

the wilderness of dolphins

winging divinity

across the hallowed shoulders

of misfortune;

 

In thought

In theory

indeed

the reckless deluge

of maniacal suburbanites

wreak havoc

on the fair city

of our lady

of great delight

 

Indulge

Induce

the sky thought

to be the limit

is now falling

 

cloaked mistresses

in red

decry our

mortal need

for bread

 

Alas, we shall

cry out to her

human, unfortunately

all too human

we are—

whether by God’s choice

or our own—

mortal we are
