Still Today

for Bill Berkson

It’s still today
Be still

Is it far where you are?
Beyond the furthermores and the afterwards

Sway me now
Notice the hook

Or failed star
Or jailed target

The force of it
User interface blindsided

Or neurological space
It has a logic to it, you could

Force an elegy: social practice
The war, the cold river water

Formation, disruption, the lamp
Suddenly begins to flicker

So keep on
Proposing paradise
