Means is a ruler


Means is a ruler
When freedom strikes
Odd –eyed and ponyed- up
This after a nightmare
That ran for weeks
Not placing

Only for a moment
A blood -orange sun
Was hung
As though the blur
Was nowhere fast

The emergency use of irony
Comes to construct
Anything it can’t run down

Your inaugural
Lies outside
A narrow stream
