All the sentries you can remember
Scores and scores, scoring, scouring, scrounging
Everything divisible if you have patience and enough decimals
Everything you've shouted and heard shouted
Give thanks for this roof over our head
All the better to project
And thunder that shook the whole house -- have you been there for that and for real? -- it's much more than what you've read
You can cross your fingers or press your palms against one another and it's not the same but you're getting there
What you do with your hair on a humid Sunday
What you do for lunch
That episode where Magnum's dad says tells kid Magnum has to tread water for 24 hours because then he'll be saved and then present-day Magnum treading and treading
Storms will happen all summer
Most clapboard is weathered
And perfect skies will look fake for generations
