CHECK

chin up
finger out
game face on

check

cover your bones
with that polyester cotton
take another leap of faith
into the 

watercolour / holodeck / wes anderson show

that looks 
just like yesterday
did

dont ask / dont wonder / dont obsess
how 
   can 
      this 
          be ?

check

remember
stiff upper lip son
and
dont explain
dont complain

check

and dont look down

unless
youre very very sure 
of your footing

out there
on
the
rotten
rungs

check

and onwards
the samewards

into
that
darkening
reduction

that glare of never heaven

that
rolling 
d
 i    i
        p 
    s       a 
            
  s           t        
                       o
                i 
                    
                          n 

thats entropy on slo-mo

check

and remember too
maintenance is ALL

thru the verse 
of daytimes
forced meter

into
the
collapsing
loose elation
chorus

of nights sigh
