Not If

     Not the same, but are.     But conclude a dazzle dance and

confront eager tropes.     Encircle the caustic.     This, lowered

down to the ground where our ancestors

               lay themselves bare.     Their essence among ragged shirts.

     With the fear of bitter winds; look, look.     In the way of

ourselves.     In the way interrupted by signs and

sweet incantations.

     What, to taste old smoke.     Instead, however, tread lightly

because these are the days

                 of days, the days without

night, the days stacked too high for gravity to ignore.

     Left, right. above.     By default.     How will base enjoyment be

                 reinterpreted.     There, at midnight below the arbor

where time finds an impossible name.
