the idea of ology comes easier less now
unsleeping, undoing. unbeing:
can’t make it happen like a kardashian producer

maybe if i were back in the ditch?

i did it for country, community college, and the anthrax vaccine
necessarily not in that order
she did it to get away from people like me,
necessary sense makes no order

unbeing: undoing. unsleeping,
dig union man dig

reading books as if by tactile
words splinter off to stab you with thoughts

when we no longer think
of hanford as the most insanely polluted place within the Homeland
and the washington wine will flow
and no one will think
and no one will know
