Writing (September)

September writes itself. Tries of alphabet children loop rightways, their spelling exploring space. Legal statement exacts vocabulary, hungry for a comma, certain of a sentence. Powerpoint makes it look easy, calling cards of immemorial memes. We prod toward production, a press of pen-pushers. Their number is legion, uploaded like light years, the 24-hour reports of eyes awake to immorality (Diagnosis: media mania). Or else writes the email that fell the city. Taps out the weather map with a flood like Genesis, a language tower like Genesis. Rights itself with 26-letter reports of eyes awake to imaginary facts, factual images, dropboxed.
