You could fall any time
you think of that rank helplessness
not often but there it is now
your visitor chirping awareness
again while you sit looking
Suspended in speed and shallow breath
you scroll through options
rational existence first shivers then
shreds at the edges
lets go like pages of a many times read book
Flutter falls not without grace
toward your shoes jammed against
the bag of things deemed essential enough
to accompany you from here there to there
then vanishes into the dark beneath🪶
