The way to bore people is to tell them everything.
--- Voltaire

In This Lifetime

She will not tell you everything, but,
you may consider a bud brooch
is necessary after a rose colored scarf
danced in her hair one Summer’s day

to be an egg’s difference;

a whiff beyond the bacon’s sizzle, or,
a squawk away from a birth not
in Spring or Fall but where
all is cold and harbors sardines.
