5821. HAPPENSTANCE

HAPPENSTANCE
The miracle of the bells has happened, a light 
over the roof, two sleds parked at the door. All 
I can see are lists : the man in the iron hat chunking 
apples, his green tractor tilting as it rides over a 
rough terrain. Making merry always takes a toll.
-
Have I lived before then? My heart wants to answer
well before my mouth begins talking. Sign language
for the blind  -  in an instant I realize that is useless.
-
Oh how this life hurts. Hurts I say. Listen up.
