everybody squanders pasts,
\neverybody,
\nlistless gradations and humblings,
\ntirelessly diurnal ramblings,
\nchomping of apples,
\nstirring of laundry,
\nidling of vehicles,
\nspraying of radio,
\nflat chesting of the elderly man
\nbragging about his television commercial,
\nclaiming he never saw it,
\nsunning himself,
\nplacidly flaccid breasts of the aging man
\nsunned to a no-stick crisp,
\nletting on that maybe he saw himself
\non the television in the taxi but
\ninsisting it was not whilst coming home from
\nthe airport, the airport, the airport,
\nhis beerbelly buddies smile and sun themselves,
\nsunning themselves by their chisel-faced neighbor,
\nnot grinning, letting him grin into
\nthe sun, the sky, the clouds,
\ntheir mouths firm and straight as they
\ncower under mortality and the sun.<\/p>\n
