landslide

let's make this metric and remind ourselves that given a centimetre, one might take a kilometre, and lead to an unequal and damaging kind of grab for the goodies so briefly displayed
and then demanded

as though one was never taught the basic principle of asking nicely and even if one did ask nicely,
there really was only a fraction of a fraction of a fraction there for the taking in the first place

she read the cards last night and was surprised to see that she might finally be able to not put up with what was put up with in the past and wondering if that means now or future, tenses not relevant until put into action, metric or imperial or otherwise, the kilometres have been claimed
and

one is not so sure of how to reclaim vast expanses of interior space only recently discovered, oh explorer with the land so fresh under her feet suddenly shifting away
