no more calendar waterclock to-do list
turning off the
             tick of work
reminders
and                  no more
spotless desk
i’ll
instead
          roll dust
on my bones
until           dusk
swear off alcohol
tell tall tales
to children
have parents
  everywhere
  angry
                     toothpaste poison
                     tantrums get you what you
                     want
everyone makes a deal
with the weekend
to forget the weak
in themselves
forgive all our
                 pants   and
                 jackets       their

                 necessity
strip mine wallets
  for id
drink until
last call pentecost
with disciples you don’t
  know
parents of pages
you can lie ink
onto

i forgive
  wristwatches
  mobiles
  rubbish
  and salary

all the offspring
rampant and accidental.
