All in the Timing

All in the Timing

not sure how much of
this i can take, pilgrim
they say it’s a new look
not to mean something
i get lost
that’s the last you’ll hear of it, boy
i can sing like a woman
i can sing like a frog
i’m a faithless recorder
just down the avenue
straining to hear my own voice
through the restlessness
of big game cats in rush hour
and still i can’t make it out
