Ode to Something

.

So much depends

on something or other;

But, Oh!

How memory falters.

.

A Barrow all busted,

the Wheel gone and rusted,

it now sits across

from an all-night diner.

.

And so this poem,

as it begins,

then it just ends –

like another,

with water that glazes.

.

Both poems, on things;

both quick as the blazes.

.

I just wish I could remember

the other.

.
