Apt. 307 [2011]

the transient checklist dust of there is
humbled by mirrored floors and     most who
stand around went missing     reflecting

artifacts later found not traveling
were all that time was willing to concede
and were served cold     to thirsty tenants

the terminus is now autumn for those
once waiting     for expirations to
occur     among the threatened and lame

steadfast is an everything and a
whenever     where the short finds his seat
and places his     perhaps another

a case to witness     and in I it
ventures to wail and is no     and is
it now     with every I the whole

it won't measure     it is a platform
time     this and what does the second mean
to oneself elsewhere     and cities most

made to take cinder block too     far and
keep the earnest confused     your chest can
keep painfully all that it might barely

hold     and a third of you have waited
at the door listening     wondering
checking     your mirrored agendas prone

          it is not the room
          that you are missing
