The gravity of this moment (a poem)

My only complaint so far about these verbless poems is that they’re too heavy. Fortunately, there are still 27 days left in the month…

Expectations awry
off-target projectiles

Suspension bridges
with heavy traffic
and incomplete cables

The weight
The distraction
The sense of defeat

Documents beneath dust
off-color
off-spec

No labels
No lists

No artifice

Every misconception
in print and on screen

Mistaken

Unforgiven

Unbound

Undefeated
