times touch and trouble us
where we move
melancholy as an ox
the work done for the office
the office never off

I take great pleasure in doubt
never prince was happier than I
who bled out of my own temple
an ox making my home by the sea

A full ox is said
to tower, half house

now that we leave pleasure
to the rope.

I raise an ox of paper
off my writing.
