Samuel Amadon
A Uselessness of Amadons
Asked how I ended up breaking into
the high school. Perfectly, myself dragged a gym-horse to a classroom,
said to it Something wrong with how
you keep my adrenaline away from me.
What a thing to do, dividing myself
between a piece of gym equipment
borrowed & a mind gone off when
no one told to answer. & yes, knew
we were distinct. & yes, still climbed
my arms around & hung under gap
at the middle of it where wouldn't
fit what wanted like birds outside
surgical in how they hide the night.
