At the Tropicana
They call us panelists flummoxers amid the full time wash of copters.
We are in a biz talk show with no host
as photons reinvest in the world, leaping out of windows.
Moving in our direction with startling humility and alacrity..
Here I am as genealogies of specialists file off.
Rebuilding requires verbs tied to esthetics that numb.
I’m the underdog here, emotionally maligned, an amalgam channel
-ing of normality, sleep, hope, repeating.
