Off into the Space of Time

Off into the Space of Time


She Said,

You,

              judge me with a comb finely scraped

                                          on  your bald head.

Look to the crackling of paper

lining your trash,

Thrown out posts, it’s

Pointing out its usefulness

In keeping us divided.

Secrets and not-tell’s

Off into a space of time.

Wanderings, mind and body.

 

She told him,

You,

              forgot not to not inspect with the glasses

                                      kept on your bald head.

Pulled to the bridge

To further examine:

You’re doing that thing you do,

He says,

When she did that thing she does,

Oh so well.

 

Don’t comb the nits from the scalp, don’t tell.

Don’t pull down the glasses to peer, don't peer.

Don’t go, off

Into space of time

In mind and body

Wandering
