All at Once
When I was five
I was five.
Recalling
being four, I
turned six. It’s
always been
like this — one
foot in the grave,
one in gravy.
Wishbone
You can guess
what the chicken
would have wished for —
At the Drone Factory
The problem was
how they went
on and on — believing
there was no problem.
