The Way Things
The way the sun when branches
The way mouths fill with time
The way need more when want
The way amygdala jumps line
The way giggling when child
The way driftwood, salt spray
The way acorns in the hand
The way to savor on the way
The way alarms inside howl
The way unbearable when beat
The way rot, grubs, worms
The way chipped teeth, concrete
The way asleep when adrift
The way bedrooms repeat
The way failure and relapse
The way don’t’s and ought to’s
meet
The way of being shook
The way greater than wine
The way without a book
The way dispensed by time
The way of keeping pace
The way chores when strife
The way uncountable ways
Haunt us through a life
