For your micro-causes
For which fresh thoughts
Have been frozen, forgotten, and found.
Microwavable thoughts
Left over
From before.

They climb the upper stairs to my door
to interrogate the future.
It has happened
occasionally,
I have received a few rare visits
when Ive been struck, jolted
by a shock that jerks the soul
within me. Occasionally Ive struggled
