beatitude
if
I took a chair
upon the dock
set the
chair
and set myself
on top
or
deeper in
I’d have a grand time
until
forgetting
where I am
suddenly stirring
and
then
falling in
chair
and peace
and all
and I hope
if
I'm not drowned
I’d have the
grace
to laugh
(or laugh
in
heaven)

I rock sometimes,
Seated cross-legged here
Between bouts of writing;
x
It works out my lower back
And keeps me in motion,
Which seems important
In the smaller ways
To do so;
x
I might like the rocking chair,
I don’t know;
There is an association
That could be revised:
x
Saving the rocking chair for age,
For those still in motion
Not going anywhere
