1210

In lieu of lunch I go
To muscle mass. The early
Critics of the institute
Demolished their settees
For kicks, but I'm
A pragmatic ne'erdowell
To say the last thing
First. The show starts
At ten, meaning twelve,
So I start praying for
A fellowship hall to open
In the hallway. Calculators
Click their heels and
Saying hi is actual
To the medication label
Fact-checking nice nice.
On the move in a
Brutally sadistic sense
Of what tenderness
Might imply where
The anxiety roams. I get
Up on my toes to fight
The arthritis that one
Gives me when she
Runs the meeting. Now
Is the time for appearances
To be remarkable.
