The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for June 2012
life is running
on at the mouth my
time is running out
with
it
to a bar some
where to have a drink or
to a salute
to
any one
of a number of
past flags
circumferences
shrink
along
with other
vital parts
the rain seems
incessant
the
grass insouciant
the rotary
reluctant
checks fail
to balance
weights
fail to measure
some
champions
in
decline
nonetheless
succeed
[gratified
subdued
applause]
