Amble into Everything


Each step a collapse

half a foot of wet sugar

over a two inch crust

over half a foot of shaved ice

keep moving

one foot in front of the other

keep the ball spinning

the dirty snow passing under you

you staying in one place

there behind your eyes

riding your mechanics

a beast on a ball in a circus

your arcs and short circuits

moving your components

in a rhythmic whir and thump

one foot in front of the other

the planet turning under

you riding into is.
