I don't feel cart-wheeling wonderful

but I'm not exactly on the roadside

with a broken axle either


in this skin all I can do is magnify the horrors

ignorant of what good I may have done

because I'm too self-centeredly busy


counting a cost beyond my ability to tally

the last comedown of pride

the vanity of thinking you could control your amendment


it is a mild winter morning

the low sun shines dully on the trees and building on the avenue


let me be content with the moment

it is all I've got

it is all it is...
