I become

For the greatest well being
Mint anarchy
With the coins of a
Heritable utopia
Sage blue jeans, enduring

I become
My opposable thumb
Lesson
Is a bridge to what I become

Dwelling
More of a game than a lesson
Concentric
More an escape than a dwelling

Concentric spheres reduce to a single scheme
And emerge full grown from the head

It turns out she can’t
Reassemble
Leafing through an ark
Within
This is not memory
We lose

My opposable thumb
Is a bridge to what I become
More of a game than a lesson
My opposable thumb

The dawning of a feeling overflows
There, rather tender
