I am not sure where the dog went

or why

and I will sit down to cross my t’s and dot my i’s

behind some caution tape,

and CAPITAL LETTERS

AFTER the clouds

disappearing behind the clouds,

disappearing AFTER HOURS

and a lingering crow slowly circles,

into a fully grown mirage now.

I’ll recognize everyone as that one English professor form from here on out,

he’s everywhere, especially up the stairs,

sitting with me, like a comfortable nightmare, his hair longer than mine

always longer than mine,

lingering more than mine,

growing in the chair,

growing under clouds,

especially up the stairs,

growing always….

He remembers more passwords than I ever will,

He’s compensated for that, though.

He’s compressed because of that, though.

His intel Pentium processor > mine
