amid the mad dash and I include you in new this
catalogue amidst the days we could not have wished for
and at that new time it was impossible not to say
at that
impossible moments entirely unfulfilled and wished for
the chasuble and the nice new wardrobe
oblivious urchins in the nice new street the contractor’s still inking with a decorator
halfway down the tract in the nice new day
no lingo helps
they string you up from here and there you go
unless you found our academy
