Loose the Measure
How many times have I washed the dishes
Oct 20, 2020
How many times have I washed
the dishes; unlimited water
abrasive absent time
decorated with music?
How many times will a rocking switch
reached, tangle with sparkles;
aluminum
down the drain?
How many times will granite stack
orderly, only for rapid removal
and a timeless loop
that lasts our length?
The answer is many times unbroken,
unlimited, orderly,
decorated, and
often absent.
