an unexpected Sunday: no ambition for chores
but instead: a family lunch, a bit of shopping, cooking shows, moving books,
telling the Vietnamese lady next door
over my dogs barking
/ no, I won’t interrupt my dinner to do yardwork /
the scent of burning plastic, the sounds of lawnmowers an incense, a song

the wharf is infected with waiting
we fake ambivalence over rumors
of falling river levels
watching the water for signs
under an eclipsing sun

what we have then
this memory machine
splash paint and pray
for receeding water
as driftwood
and other forgotten continents
swim by, southbound

time against the rising water
joke about beach front camping
as the river erases the north wharf
practicums on knot tying
while the river falls out of bed
