weeksgonedry

a mosaic appears
shimmering to the blink
/
wiggling to the feel
/
if there weren't
a guffaw to echo
then
lips wouldn't eat this
all up.

-

step before step
& foot after foot
- - -
there's a sinking
a loss of legs
. . .
toes touch surface again though
and
this cycle moves to puzzlement
a confusion
to emphasize
overall standing.
