The Monocle

Focus at one point

is a must

to lean into a thing

learn it, thus

experience teaches

the nature of hyena

howling

(this is taking too long!?)

in sardonic drawl

objective spread

over the indeterminate

while

as such git,

never gets done

like house cleaning

always put off

& putting off

posturing, circling

or building muscle

true 5 minutes a day

of prowess, stretch

leads to some good

in dissipation

& daily shuffle

but not so much

as maniacal focus

does

in seeing

through

any arbitrary

deadline hunt

& so, shutter

of an eye in the

photographing

of wild subjects,

for later, plain

out of the jungle

should these slide

over

the monocle

like a cackle

of hyena

striped, or spotted

with crooked smile
