a post i forgot to post

It was Wednesday. The day before the day before the day the day of THE DAY.

T – 3 = now

Solve for x.

X is a variable mysterious as the human heart

Ventricles, red blood cells, incessant ticking

Friends’ paper castle were collapsing; saliva swapped up and down the California coast

The Grand Canyon almost built and the white board almost cleaned.

The phone rang but alacrity was missing.

Sonnets pressed between the pages like clean sheets, unslept, blinking away the night noises.

Such was Wednesday August 22, 2007
