One Pass Through

Duran Mazzana

Diagonal blinds,
sun aims for the bench,
not me.
Margins offer sight, 
dwelling on bougainvilleas.
Their periodic nature of willfulness
refuses a clean-up.
I stack my one pass through,
against its one of tons—
its lines’ continuum,
grants a surprise to everyone.
I can get jolted 
from what’s to come,
and boredom can come,
and fortune can come,
and wisdom can come,
with insights that numb—
and that’ll be it,
done and done.

    Metaphors and images stud this poem. It seems decisive. Well done
