9228. TRYING TO KEEP THE CHALLENGE GOING

TRYING TO KEEP 
THE CHALLENGE GOING
Getting to this life is the easy part :
card games and paradigms, diagrams
and graphs. I got all that within a week,
all down pat. I fell in love with the time
to be. Once recognized, twice shy. You
see? All that goes, like a bad reputation
preceding a thief, like a handler of wagon
horses who doesn't know a thing 'cept
how they whinny and how they sing.
-
It's a monstrous circumference, this crazy
globe. From the Aral Sea to the Plains
of Abraham, I take what's fit to come
to me, whatever you send or your
judgment be. A cavalcade of Alamos
or a mass of messy Masada's, It's
all okay, it's all okay.
