A Backyard Poem: Public Access Poem 03/26/2021

Poem about switching back to smoking and how cold it is outside. Written during an bubbly RPAN broadcast.  

EXT.  BACK OF  ISRAEL'S APT. - DAY

I don't recall dependence dragging
thus before, chain gang metaphors
oblong and obvious. Choice vs

will, a briefing on clinging 
to death in life, etcetera: midst
of sobriety we are fucked up

don't shower. Lent golems stack chips 
and count cards for burnt bricks
and insomnia rent. Cold open: 

I've picked up smoking again
after chemical alternatives
farmed chest jellyfish. 

A friend calls who I'm short with. 
I pass time with plump diversions. 
No rest for the unobservant.
