the numbers increase
of times passed
the body’s aches & pains
all the “i’s gathering
in the mind
carrying on
while the math
speeds up
the walking slows
it does or does not
matter this
‘I’ wants to stick around

Listen. If (UofAPress):
the way of what fell
the lies
like the petals
falling drop
delicately
