smack

will smith cracked after cracking up 
at chris rock cracking wise 
on smith’s wife 
at the pantheon of a cracked industry 
we inhale deeply on repeat 
crack rock smoke of wisecrack wildfire 
we spread of our own will

////

blacksmith swings furious 
shaping hope from despair
swinging endlessly
slam eternity
what’s left? will it be
nothing there
nothing fair
nothing left but anvil rock of reality
