Deadlines
The trouble
with deadlines is not death,
You keep
on living. Adjustments are
made. Ask the chiropractor. Or put
up with that
ache a few days more.
Now a
chalk line is different or one
drawn in
the sand. Don’t stray. Don’t
step out
of bounds. I had a dead line
once. Alas, I dropped it in a poem.
Maybe
this one.
