folding new routines
folding new routines
into old routines is as
carefully concocted
as breaking the old –
we often try
too hard
to schedule the
unscheduled, a
forced impromptu

who schedules
who schedules
and builds
the layering within an
onion, assembles
each membrane
with the fleshy
parts, alternating
resistance
and tears?

autumn minutes
require more
cushioning, it’s true –
for every second
we spend on one
another, we pull
more tightly to the
seconds that remain,
sipping on the
hour like it’s the
best hot chocolate
the city has to offer

on the elevator
ride down, no
one says a word –
thirty-five stories
ignored, we stay

you are slightly late,
you are slightly late,
i am slightly early –
somewhere
on a floor just
above us, over
the hum of two
fluorescent bulbs,
someone is plotting
these data points
across multiple
axes, sipping the last
of Tuesday’s
coffee, closing the
folder on why
we never meet –
the sudden draft
is mesmerizing

as i prepare for my own
flight, a lonely departure

in the middle of the
night, the alarm setting
quietly switched
to uncontrollable
gigue in e minor
an hour ahead of
schedule, a surprise
to all as the city
awoke prematurely
to the pitter-patter
of wet, little feet
dancing atop
their window units

after awhile we
after awhile we
started unwrapping
the bandages
just to take
a look, just to
ensure that we were
on schedule for
healing. but time
stared back, raw
time, bandaged
like soldiers
marching
over the edge
