A Word Problem
If the humid nights dust the evening
Kentucky sky purple, how many years
will you continue to do the same thing?
Show your work in days
and, using your calipers, measure
the exact heaviness.
How many times from a young age
did you hold your words. Well? Badly?
If the number is not imaginary
how many words would it take
until you explain anything
about your life?

Thanks for articulating my suspicion that I’m not getting at my real story (“How many times from a young age/ did you hold your words”). Good title.
