Sixty-Six Thousand Steps

Fade away (almost)

Immersive

In concept

Also in delivery

Persuasive

Close-up

Also far away

Declare this

In sunlight

And beneath the stars

Shul Times

Change and education

Or education and change

Rushing headlong

Into a future

On tracks or with steps

Entirely shaped by happenstance

Fade away, almost

The words don’t settle

So easily, even

Individual letters

Are difficult

To comprehend

Cigarette Walk

The line of trees

How might I believe

Beyond the night’s darkness

The pathway through the woods

All uphill until

The bright clearing appears

Sociology

I do not know of Le Bon or of Hippolyte Taine before him, although I did once stay in the Place de la République

The closest that I get to mob culture is in the football crowd, where I occasionally do move from individual thought

Of course I despise those politicians, especially the conservatives, who chose to name group behaviour as mindless and without reason

Instead, even though my own experience questions it, I prefer to believe that I behave as a thoughtful individual, whether alone or gathered in a crowd

Scheduling

Ordinary things

Smaller things

A note about the builder

Coming to do repairs

Orgasmic with their climactic noise

Then

When the dry weather arrives

The painter will paint the walls
