Think of our courts and cunning missing bail. 
Everything you expect waiting now in wistful   
 
landscapes, hum-vacuumed.  
What’s the worst that can happen?  
Um, ok, yes, I bet. Open the curtains.  
De-peopled points trip up not speaking for months  
(critical moments you thought),  
 
finding my direction as I thought of you —  
So it never happened.
