Spending hours talking to daughters for whom space goes
lopsided and blockaded, barriers to the sun, ex-wives tho forget
the ruby rings and gold necklaces I bring them, old friends cowered
in clouds, tic, tac toe, where shall I go except into the scrofulous,
sere fields of
Here.

The Whole Way
they drink too much
they eat too much
they run around
that kind of thing
that's how some people
get anything at all
out of it

some stay in a garden
the whole way
some at a desk

the human family
is interesting to watch:
how they
decide
to use the time and
space

as hundreds of years go by
just like that
