LUCID INTERVAL

Tread very gingerly; you’ve used up almost all the words.

Heavy worry about growing small again, but this time accidentally.

Don’t be so fanciful. If you’d add those mustard-family vegetables

To the pot roast                It would feed so many more.

                         Shepherds are still tender in a time of war.

New lovers plagiarize say awkward things and yearn.

My heart’s desire would be only to desire, but not to grasp.

               And not by yonder blessed celestial anything I swear.
