Such A Tiny Journey
(Which I, By All Means, Extend)
Today is worship day.
Not warship day.
It is neither Saturday
nor Sunday. Okay, it is
Saturday. We are all
liars.
I can say this
knowing and not
knowing.
It is not just about
who’s quotable
enough to make
the point for me.
To help point to
something like
a red herring
(what of it?),
or who’s quotable
enough to divert
attention away from
the reel-to-reel,
here, now, then....
Narrative is
like that. And
it’s almost every-
thing.
And especially
pretty much everything
else.
But in case you’re
working too hard to notice,
or hardly notice anything at all,
“I might turn out a good lyric but
I’m sure to make your dinner
real inedible.” That’s direct
from Lauren Shufran.
