Tension makes a tangle

As Frail Hinges
Pivot On a Case's Door
Commemorative
Souvenirs From Places
Containers Change
With Each Occasion

A Cellophane Encased
Display of Paper
Certificate
To Credit Years of Service
A Tool of Central Enterprises
The Early Hope
For Permanence
The Words
The Rings
Consistency
The Social Security
A Miracle Is High Tragedy

Thought Mistaken
For a Memory
Clear the Dust From
Smiles in Boxes
Pass a Patterned Wall
Recall Their Voices

A Local Post
Will List Your Friends
In Order of
Disappearance
The Lawn Scattered

Tins Feed Birds
A Portion Baked For
Absent Guests
And the Mass Edition Icon
God Sent Comfort
Your Salvation
But Who Grants Absolution
For Sins That
Never Were Committed

Tension Makes a Tangle
Of Each Thought
Becomes An Inconvenience
Sound As It Never Penetrates
As Servile Edges
Break and
Feint

Thought Mistaken
For a Memory
A Dress Length
Assassination
A Fractured Family Tie
Another Christening

Christening
