Powerlessness
My power went out.
The power company
Texted to say
They were aware of the issue.
The lamps were on but off.
I opened the fridge to find
The leftovers crouching in the dark.
Powerless, I lay on the couch,
Reading Blanchot.
And just as I was growing comfortable
Being without power
Lights I didn’t remember
Turning on turned on.
