You're taking a line for a walk
to capture the cherry blossoms along the River Styx . . .
It's a day in someone's life, yes? . . .
The someone who was promised this but given that . . .
How unlikely . . .
Then the excitement of the roles you took on
after the barman's Last Call
bloating your Little Black Book
with fingerprints from your tweens . . .
You were dusted . . . and sent home . . .
Your Hokas make the unseen seen
with canned images from the produce section
of the neighborhood Hannaford . . .
Plans to repair the fence
trampled by wolves in sheep’s clothing
en route to grandma's
await the results of COVID testing . . .
The director of Netflix's Ripley
refuses to believe it . . . or not . . .
There once was a time . . . you suppose . . .
