Had Enough
A big grunting, an M-double-ass-mass of mountain,
if feel on you, would bloat and strain
like me, like my tired. Yes, my ties, my poison TO-DO's,
the gnats around my eyes.
I stole time to think about this,
even as el time burns off like alcohol.
We am dumb, don't-know-sky,
pill-bug bearings rolling through a million metal tubes,
don't know why.
