Relax into this, you
have to choose
this fledgling voice
sounded out of the down.
Sparrow is better
than your panicky wage
reporting, your stymied
smartphone. This momentary
reprieve from baby is
smarter than toll-free phone
calls. Call me eternal:
ageless, or age-free.
I know how hard it is to steer
your mind against
the bluster of I-70,
but hold tight your hand
and you may arrive
at the emergency
room at midnight, the ultimate
surprise of one word
following another.
