Kerri Shying R # 330 - forces of nature



forces of  nature

wake up   my head
a tilt tray      how to
dump   or lower  all the caught
stuffed clogs   the teeth on
wooden pattens  buckle
 come some mechanic   tickling
 head  holding wrench

I am the constant re-arranger
filing over filing    must be
watched   in case I chew it up
and store it in my cheeks
secret squirrel    sighs
 more grief    holding up the line
 sentencing you all  

to lukewarm tea  unwanted
idle hours   I am
unpaid overtime    I am your anger 
overcome  in waves
  spilling and recurring
  hopeless   I’m the sea
