I Don’t Know In The Short Blood

Lessons, assignments, tests.

Exams, tutoring, studying.

Entrance, rejection, graduation.

 

Birth, life, death.

Sliding scale, weighing scale, colour scale.

Hidden, shoveled, exercised.

 

Re-run, re-heat, re-try.

Exit, depart, end.

Silence, quiet, whisper.

 

Tasted, dropped, stream.

Drink, lost, disappear.

Fail, flunk, despair.

 

Funeral said, rest done.
