Radar Detector
when I was young if
I remember
I built
sanctuaries--forts
to make the world
myself
myplace
to make my plans
for escape
within
to disbelieve the
adults and those already
dead
to come to
realize that I was
right and that
I was
am
I.
am
I
supposed to do something?
I still make forts
out of
books
words
apartments
music
women liquor
sleep
each day I come to know
that I Was wrong,
or women's sleepy words.
and now in my
fort
misfortune
forgotten meaning
I know that there
will
come a day when I am
better or worse
but the rest will probably be about
the same
