because amber has scored a band soundcheck schedule
because the spider has come back (twice) to web-build
in the open doorway to catch an artist patron or
blues musician—corey transports it on a thread
to windowsill geranium plant—red dried blossoms
no wind through the window—seeds caught in old web
because the treasurer hasn't been in the office yet
hasn't signed our art carney cheques for labour
day weekend and it's a week and a half since
because the copper leaves get stems fused today
will become a vine this afternoon or tomorrow
because i've become hungry for chicken brocolli
and stuff casserol and should step out of this poem
performance to scuttle home long enough to heat & eat
because it's too wet for johanus to be sitting
on the grass working soapstone so he's relocated
to the boardwalk under the balconies and with will
and alec is tackling a box of fresh donuts-to-go
because the ringing sound of this manual typewriter
is being heard in brick-walled craft college rooms
