mmdccxi

there is a nakedness underneath//that is underdeveloped
                                                              —John Thompson

Mountain-out-of-Molehill-Maker
is my new job title.  My business

card is off limits and the screen
of my computer is dead, the key

board doesn’t work, but there’s this
youth to it.  I feel from it.  Don’t

look now but there’s such youth
ful energy that comes from

wisdom, heartbreak, movie
trailers. Case in point, me;

I am my latest job description,
see?  But.  Nobody wants

to wait with me while
the credits roll.  When

you said you’ll pay
did you mean

attention or
vengeance?
