[DOF] everything is a blur

[everything is a blur] 

everything is a blur; 

from the ancestry of willow trees 

to a hollow speck 

unidentifiable of its attributes— 

mother sure is authoritative; 

her misanthropy exerts 

threats, endangering the mass 

and sending them to 

the void—heaven does not 

account sinners— 

the ceiling suspended: still 

and lifeless; 

the ground is shaking, excited 

for a feast sure is to 

come in a week— 

dear maggots, at ease— 

alas, the light arrives 

as the coda hymns 

yet its advent is abrupt 

like a blur— 

it has greatly forsaken me—
