Unlevel

In the course of events
from time to time
it becomes crucial
to paraphrase tree stumps
counting the bite of chainsaw teeth
where the earth absorbed sawdust
I stand on even feet
and declare
today shall be 
as it already has been
a day to see the bubble in the tube
laid upon a table
on a floor
held up by the ground
to tip it over
waggle, split into front and rear pockets
with, on the dance
a care not worn
but cast upon the pyre
as the level dirge
electrifies to fire.
