Yes April

With a tip of the hat to Konstantine Karyotakis 

We wheeze past arch wind's own
Stiff upper affixed in place in case
Of key change stringing us along
Alongside riffs come to bless us home

If an antenna should receive who are we
Kidding ourselves rid of the lift
With ease un-breezy lone charity feigned
Under the chilled rain holding the reins

Simpering for equality broken by
The most unlikely happenstance bereft 
Of litmus doused with flunking grades
Veering us cliff-off toward more of

The beaten beanpole tipped on its side
Intended to seem horizontal as 
An inadvertent sunset blasting sideways
Light into the predictable night
