three word wednesday this week: bicker, nervous, trajectory

walking a nervous nirvana
the ol’ man began to bicker
with his disenchanted dog
his offending spittle
a traveling trajectory of
breakfast cheerios and 1% milk
unnoticed misses the mark.

there’s no such thing as beginning at the beginning- just when would that be, and who would tell the story? but some moments in a life suggest a kind of punctuation: quick-stop comma, full-stop period, or the in between caesuras of semi-colon and colon. rosalyn brown, half a heart
