FUCKING BENCH
I walk past a plastic bag
filled with eggs in cartons
into that park
I think I should
take more opportunity
in places I find
in my mind
and record what
other ways to ground
are way cleaner than
those without
that’s what I heard said
on THIS
fucking bench
you sat on and against
some legend
only personal
two bags of food here too
under the bench, plastic bags
with bags of chips
protectively stashed,
all in shade beside
dapples showing through
the tree to land
on me and this
seat, what world
rounds up even
