Growth
1.
I'm not growing,
  my knowledge of percentages
    makes me calculate to little accuracy
  the worth of people,who in my corruptive
    imagination bury their dead
   in front of their houses

2.
The undertaker says
    he can write on water,
so i believe what he tells me
   and slowly cower back in

Foresight

Night falls,barking windows to all
   all life darkening or shut,
except one from behind which
   a child waves to me
       endlessly..

Asymptote

1.
Back in the day.
  It makes my head spin,
just saying that
   for i'm nothing like i was
 yesterday

 2.
   The old man
  who never sits alone
 in the evening,
    has been seen whispering
  to the tails of dogs

3
 And it was dusk,
   when the boy ducked
 under his mother's skirt
  and pulled on it fearfully until
it emerged along with her behind,
  that there was no heavy breath for him
    without pain.from then on
   he was led to believe
there are no dogs in the yard.
