A TREE WALK, HENCE- WAS NEVER ENOUGH



A tree walk waste never enough,

only a mirror
heard
a table
wholly enough.

A tree walk west never enough,

only a table
herded
a mirror
whole led.

A tree walk
behold
once upon a time
upon a rhyme

bounce upon stance

bounce a silence a time

times a pluck

come pluck, here pluck
now pluck

hand edge
for (that is) all
handful fall.

    SOCCER, HABESHA!!

    I don't know there,
    here in my locality

    there is no
    ball sport that is
    played by one ball only.

    example:
    gratitude to our bountiful parents,
    we are the founders
    of staying
    at home
    until well wall-lit mornings.

    it's the sacred errors
    of the neighbouring
    summon

    foreign to our habit
    that made us
    use at least two balls
    at a time

    until
    they close their doors
    clothe our errands
    full of evenings.

    who can allow
    the shops
    to run innocents
    that open
    early hour

    to openly close our doors, a door
    for the sake of welcoming
    morning breeze

    hardly out of permission
    of our doors
    of our dogs
    of our furniture

    furnishing
    fond of hobby
    budding bed
    sampling supple
    reality

    to seek the guest

    apparently
    eventful
    exactly
    eventually

    to not last
    more than one ball a visit, a door...do not crack creek it crack it slalom like
    how many balls
    did I count,

    'whatever finish-able, last-able-
    countless!' declared
    the rock
    the cock,

    nearly mistaking everlasting
    LV
    EO.
