listing like buckling

laptop   .   pretzels
peanut-butter sandwich
portable medieval-history
         crumbs in my journal
half-working pen   :   fractured blue-black lines
"pick text spots,"       ten-page history
quicksheet for aristotle lecture

troubles organizing things,
lately. As they are before me
         unskilled objects
         --just to make sense kind of trouble.

The nail-trimmers hanging
list   -   ing a bit over the edge on top
the coffee-table sends me into a rage
             a deep in the core of my neck kind of rage.    Solid.
Splits and shatters, spleenful almost pleasing :          Imagined.

I can resist pacing only so much before      .
--venture outside to find somebody to talk to.
