You've got cat memes
running around in your head
they're there in bold white letters
walking on the fiber optic high wire
toward every house on the block
that's the whole street of the world
it's a balancing act in the abstract,
a respect,
woe for my age
woe for I am aging
woe and woe and I am gone
to speak of empty things
A blue sky
a blue ocean
a blue thought
a blue grave
blank screens are graceful
personified in the culture gap
mind over mind under money
pay the rent
each
day month year
pay
for the burial plot the funeral pyre
the insurance card the right to expire
woe is my age
woe for the aging
go and go and I am here
staying up for the after-burn
a plot for the reckoning
a newly cemented age.
