Part of this safety is some routine locked in code
Predictable, like each next white stripe on the road
We stash away surprises underneath our several beds
Like clown coats and fire suits, as lost basketballs
Meander to the edge

But parts of this stasis are the details of your laugh
Against pillow cases, and down the stairs, and from the bath
The revive the verbs that strive to serve their gentle charity
Like Isis vs. velum, don't you ever tell then the things they do to me

So
