Calisthenic, Week 11

Lexical Accretion (p 208)

The day is good for a West Moreland stroll
the day is good for skipping the toll
the day seems good for skipping, or
trolling, because each day is good
when rolling, rolling; rolling is good
for loose-leaf tobacco, loose dough,
dogs in dirt or horses in dirt, and now
it's a good day for a ride on a horse
or a ride down Moreland Avenue
is good if you want to skip the toll
is good if this morning you broke a bowl
is good when there's nowhere else to go
there's nowhere to go to score your goal
whatever that may  be, wherever that
may be; maybe forever you'll skip
the toll of tobacco, lungs rolled in dirt
