Confident cannot ram shackle
neither can cackles crackle
on fading green siding
housing persons incoherent
cleared for nightly chimney day
Smoke out of joint to quell the lung
health is not a fiction
nor can non make way for paths
into midnight friction -- give up
and assign the overgrown porch
to watch the outside cats
Rust follows rooflines
illustrating earth aware metal
wetted for its close-out
sold to the lowest glitter
a length of copper calamity
slackened, drooling for the rain
Nice poem, I love it!
Thank you, Jacob
