Angle

Absolutely serious about everything.
And that's only the beginning of the problem,
only one way of blinking a flutter free of its horse,
returning to a stable where the best miracles
are cast-off as miraculous receptions.
You can only pick them up if you tilt your head
in the direction of all that mean-faced charity.
A flutter is also a bet. I'll wager it's useless to remind
all the angles in heaven that a perfect circle is so
because its wings have been clipped.
