Morning Song
By Sawako Nakayasu
Every time, these days, it seems, an equation gets forced. Forged:
far cry
______
low rise
and every morning sticks, figure A, for alas, stick figures, it
figures that we awaken in the same rectangle at different points on the time
line, these every days the sum of all our
angles, a beyond-complementary
rate, exceeding three hundred sixty, then three hundred sixty-five, three
hundred seventy
days, and angles, a supersaturated moon. Also it is morning
and I am far
from and I cry.
The last ditch grows deeper and I stuff the
world into a quadratic of words, for example: But-I-love-you.
Place-in-the-box. Pass-the-god-damn-butter.
That’s four against three. Far against which cry.
