broadside

The poet finds himself absent
The pervasive telegraphic gene,
Constitutionally unable 

To manipulate arcane figures
For some distant purpose...
Accordingly he comes to accept
The shovel or pipewrench or drill
Placed in his hand,
Comes to value a life
Among squirrels bluejays & clouds
Turning in Spring skies
