Boyer Rickel
Box 10 (lyric)
a mist (his suffering) a theme and lacking closure like the tick and spin
of sprinklers on the lawn list-list-list, they hiss lacking variation the spin
of suffering: a drift dive downward (like a leaf) through sleep, through waking
a theme and variations the tick and spin of days (items on a list) drift lines,
tide lines (the tick of leaves) asleep, awake: the drift of closure the day a mist
