The morning is warm. A fan whirling
the air. The calm force of tiredness
shows up in everyone's body
shows up in everyone's body
chewing, languidly talking.
What chemicals have we forgotten?
The air blows cold
down the northern corridor
the ink freezes in my fingers
no electronics can soothe love.
What chemicals have we forgotten?
