Kit Kelen #1416 - closer than you think

1416
closer than you think

one gets used to a scarcity
it spreads

here’s the last leaf
I say salad

gulp for air
clutch at belongings

not enough grease to turn the wheels
no tiger for the tank

I kid myself
where the joke runs cold

turn on the tap
for the fairy dust

one has to love hoof made paths
the dew falls for a fact

books when there was only one
someone else had to read

dole temperatures out
till something like warm

or breeze to other end the year
like a sun forgetting first thing

sky lost to rain
mnemonic for what?

track ends then here we are
so quietly and listen, eyes shut

who’s that in the garden then?
time is the telling thing
