loosened elastics
pull down your pants

LOOSENED ELASTICS
make you fall flat on ground

basket appears far away
the sky feels nearer
you see stars on ground
BASKET APPEARS FAR AWAY
you see stars on ground
the sky feels nearer
basket appears far away

  14. You are so clever! I love the way the four poems interact in a series...
    I am always impressed with how you take on new challenges and forms of poetry that require a great deal of discipline.. is that your mathematical training? (Plus inspiration, of course!)
