One of those days where threads
in mind don’t stay cogent long
enough to illuminate
moments ago I foresaw a grave
situation arising from a sentence
I half heard in the News
mass unhappy endings implied and
– instantly translated into an
indecent shift of spatial attention
probably a saving grace; I may
have missed the point by
focus drift and work-shy feet
but this attention span of mine is
milliseconds shorter than
the space it occupies
