What settles?
You. A draft.

The foundation
of a house.

This wind picks up
but never gets

alarming.
And I can’t tell

disappointment
from lack

of inertia,
as they’re both

so drab and gray
and boring.

This poem unsettles. Which is what undrafty you was aiming to do.

  I had a line about poking things with a stick but took it out… glad to see the effect was still the same 🙂
