nothing concluded 108

had he been working
his day would be half over
instead he is concerned
an early riser by those
who bring him coffee

he never seems to get too far
even on his day off
today is the great January thaw
it's got to be nearly
fifty degrees

he's already found his cloud
today again some will never approve
of the style whether it's the clothes
on his back or the twists he puts
on his head at nine in the morning

if they really cared
they would be here
close to the top
nothing concluded
had he an idea

what he might be up against
he would prevent
the attachment from taking hold
mind and heart
pounding in four nails

jc style and he feels as though
he may have helped
him carry the wood
had he been there
and had any idea

what was really going on
under first hours of sunlight
thinking of the sunrise
he used to know
seems like only yesterday

it probably was
while walking over a bridge
without a watch
surely watching
but nothing concluded...
