NOW AND AT THE HOUR

The little belly
ache of April

sun is
the only reality 

show
on earth today—

it's great
reveal, more a gradual

unlearning.
Like another famous 

young mother
of desire, slow

but tender,
careful but

fierce-
ly, its mission is

to loom
and coax,

to wax
and wait, while its

target demo-
graphic below,

slowly reconceives
its own

daffiness—
for joy. But for now,

the people are all still 
too white 

with it—too deliberate.
Or else,

too green. For instance,
some of them will try

to tape this 
for later.

And though they
are moved,

nobody thinks—to bow
or to duck.
