North Of Boston

Kurt Philip Behm

Today

 I decided

not to rhyme

 

The words

in volleys

poorly formed

 

Predicates

outcast

 covers smashed

 

Their accents

bouncing

 meanings lost

 

Today

I decided

not to rhyme

 

Appeasing

some

beyond the fence

 

Connections

broken

  phrases served

 

Playing tennis

without

— a net
