"A Strategy for Sleeping Well at Night"
for Tim Yu

The shirt I’m wearing is tumbled
dry – the answer’s yes I feel like that
increasingly it is often eye rhyme,
encountering objects, squaring off

a function of memory, a ball point pen,
a record which merely skirts and does not
open as I expect (which is want)
to deliver this question of what is
meant – “thicker” – don’t be fooled,
the solution set is two:
intuitive and untrue

a course of history of hanging by
an apparatus – does it over
arch or under
lie? this call to speak
that does not die,
a pooling which loosens
the grip on – suppose
imparting I utter this.
