scherzo 
Rimsky – at my own expense 
see into the dark of laughter
ripe recklessly
oh so seriously brittle
crack up
inhabited 
that's all this world is 
take it on the chin
a chuckle under 
it's medicine 
garden as imperfect system
torn world to world turned 
where we are taken in
orphans all 
smack on the tail 
in a slapstick 
titter
tickle till you give up, 
give in 
give over
my alarm gives out – 
'there's something wrong'
Siri wakes us to a world 
where this will always be right 
up stretch 
into all of the nevertheless
you have to laugh
scherzo takes us to the news 
I'm Anita Savage
you should see the others 
(the same joke runs through
just this one head) 
it's the sameness of days that I'm in 
only in laughter 
lost to be home
