delicately slightly gently

it deserves undue attention.
i see the way it works.
i'll spend an hour tomorrow
just talk talk talking.
to an unending impossible wave.
let's all just hold it together.
please never ask me to close my fist.
i wish it could keep getting longer.
but it fails.
i failed gray.
i failed in, and by, my shoes.
i failed because i am morose.
i failed in a critically unlikely grandiosity.
in the garden i appreciate and circu-ambulate the leaves.
if i could touch you with silver.
if i could deliver the sliver of hands.
to me you will never be an it.
do you hear me?
fa, and fa alike.
