Cynthia Marie does timetables
with an old digital stopwatch keeping her faithful.
And let's be honest, I'm unstable
on the couch

while Cynthia, little Cynthia, just lets it all flow out.

And I play sloppy piano
while she finds algorithms in my poetry.
"You can let go, it's me," she said.
"Tell me what's wrong, daddy," she said.

Cynthia is barely able to breathe,
gripping five and five fishhooks
into bleached hospital sheets.
And let's be honest, timetables are in doubt
as her mechanical heartbeat metronome machine
just lets it all play out.
