father time

"Henri aeon volcanic sleep
when he shot he
swept the stratosphere"

that being so dozing
I almost interrupted myself
w/ a snort

after seven, the blanket 
remains time 
to turn on my father's light
and resume, lovingly and appreciatively,
my "studies"

come home and shuffle R
van over curb and swing
screen door to 
hear mother, 

sing
double fan
chorus exhaust,

pouring cooking over yard
and jar of preserved lemons
that fast spawn bacterial colonies

I pour that orange-green Eden
disc down the alley drain

hums my father the night
provides cover but isn't good,
says sister

moon faces us always, this 
I attribute to him
