what the dickens!
the sea urchins have
asked for more
it is their bed
and they
will have to
lie in it
their niche that uncle
Scrooge evolution
says they
will need to be schooled in
for millennia more

is the blackboard
upon which
is written
the formula

as he aged his
key dictum increasingly became:
love every single
living thing
this he felt ever more
insistently and clearly
until
on his deathbed
a vision of love dawned
upon him

to understand
a tiny
bit better

of the

let the darkness enfold me
like the crust of a pie
and if I should die
of suffocation
let me express such joy

not perfectionist
plays the odds
takes risks
leaves holes in the fabric
precisely that
creatures so limited,
helpless as I
might breathe

turning blue since
about to die laughing
but then
clown paramedics
scampered in
saved
the day
tickled him

better than the killer joke
the one that
resurrected him

no sooner had he
said the word
“eternal” than
the chain broke, the gears
jammed
there were riots
down at the granary
whilst she
put her hand into a
small pool
surmising how much
(for better
or for worse) invisible
life
