Monday Monday

Monday, Monday
 
Drained books on religion: feel-good
and theologic. Read Bible once, Old
Testament several times. Tom Kempis
Imitation of Christ, many times.
Devotional.  Desire. Get right with the
whole. Be in accord with nature in her
manner of operation.  Feeling somewhat
disillusioned at life’s end: waste of time.
A  foolishness. Demoralized. Depressed.
Sinking feeling like a fart in church.
Dong Ping hums in the morning
as he fixes green tea.
 
Massive and continual slaughter of ants,
slamming with the back side of books,
 reams of paper, index finger, thumb
crashing, colliding, collapsing &
crippling their progress over my desk
and keyboard: poke, slam, slap & tickle
injury and insult as they scoot under
coffee cup and mouse.  The violent
bear it away.  .

  2. Bottom drops out every once in a while--you know: valley so low,mountains so high. Whole-assed rather than half?
