How I will end the decade (2018)

There are 10 people more than before

Other others with the endless years born between them

Ten more than ever and the X life into that

Another to an other, decades at every X years

person I speak to is older than the last time I wanted to speak

10 dates of dating the last ten times I said anything at all

And if anyone speaks to me, there are 9 people I cannot know at any one time

And they speak to me all the time

They X-emplify everything I do not know

and X-amplify all the things I do

at least ten ways to hear every fact whether or not counting listening as just one fact in itself

I am spoken to ten years at a time

And find a century in the mix of two decades spilling over each other in the same breath

There are more years than people, therefore too many years for every person

Decades on decades overlapping in a time that separates X at a time

For 10 years a day I live for 10 people every year

Every one tenth year of another lost decade

a lot of it

from early mourning to very late even-ing
