I want some things to be 
gone like revoking a passport 
no more designated grace 

Just looking 
across the border the landscape 
appears about the same as
the acre I’m standing on

The guard
nearest 
in a box and bored

Does it all have to make sense?
the world I mean
does my trauma have to fit
your trauma for either of us
to haul a pad of ink out of a desk drawer
stamp a visa and approve entry
