MANY TOO'S

MANY TOO'S


It is too hot;
has been too hot

too long. No sooner
do I write the words,

I see with what
subtlety I cause

needless suffering:
too many too's.

Remove them, thus:
It is hot, has been

hot a long time.
Just the reality, then,

forget the judgment.
You see the difference?

You feel the difference
already, in the heat?

Too many too's, then.
I mean, of course,
simply: many too's.
