Fool Letting
by
Brent Fuller
We keep a clock
But thwart its movement
As a cog
In things neglected
Keep calendars
Without appointment
A plethora
Of reeking ointment
Can’t see daughter.
Hurry her stain.
Don’t fix the roof
Heap stock in vain
Play victim,
Learn
Next time it rains
Skip school
Skip work
To weigh the pain
Put it past the woe in you
Let panic
Guard the whore in you
Still famous tricks
And rhetoric too
Are dubious, dull
Denouncing you
