the day

change cracks into our
psyche, a spiderweb
in our routine

anxiety sits
comfortable
a bubble in the chest
waiting for the right
moment...

POP!

or...to discreetly
dissolve
resolve.

the anticipation of these results
like an election between
two morons
both clever
and cutting
jutting is this move
this day
this season hath no more
purpose than
this reason...pleasin

and i see it all play out in
his mood
and his face
and the words he is NOT
saying
the gesture away and
up the stairs
anywhere but here.

and i wonder
am i doing this right?

is there ever
any way to know?
