11,049. BLANCHE

BLANCHE
Reasons for refused delivery are
often difficult to write. Not as 
difficult sometimes as a poem  
-  in fact, always easier. Put the
mantle down, uplift the banner
and word. (If I have to listen to
this guy go on again about his
daughter the artist I'll blanche.
Or, maybe that's her name?)...
-
My life was never particularly 
easy, and now it's a reverberating 
mess, for sure. I can be made to
feel like Humpty Dumpty, but
before or after the fall, that I can
never tell. Quit egging me on.
