Poem – Startled Exit – January 13, 2024
8 - Startled Exit. Twelve minutes to go seven minutes.
7 - Hushed Saturday morning walk to the train.
6 - Yesterday's crowd somebody else's here-now.
5 - Flying by moments just captured.
4 - Awestruck by uncomplicated daybreak,
3 - Cool and disinterested,
2 - Echoing capacity,
1 - Labels -
2 - Embedded insurance.
3 - Setback by conclusions.
4 - Stacked tardy shakenup procrastinators.
5 - Neglectful long delayed anybodies nearby.
6 - Emiting stalled reproductions - facimilies imitating interest.
7 - Scary mirrors replying deliberate and delayed acknowledgements.
8 - Staggered arrival - justification backed moments now somebody elses.
