Chicago Review
As penance, I’d spitwhat I’d already chewedinto a cloth napkin.
I was ordinaryin that I improved,unknowingly,as a thinkerand learned whento distrustthe good peopleraising me.
I’d go with my mouthinto a walk-in closetwhere I’d drinkwater for the firsttime in the dayand I’d have helpingupon helpingupon helpingupon helping.
I’d face a sundressand have a good sweatinto my helpingand rework my mouthby biting downonto a Styrofoamball of pins and needles.
