emails store responsibilities
so I gave my inbox a half-
life of a day; still
most feel only two-
thirds of the way there;
but sometimes they are double-
booked, triply-
filled, sleep found at four-
in-the-morning, oscillations
between fractions and in-
verses, ratio-
ned exuberance trip-
ping one up, one down
until one doub-
ts the mean-
ing of a day
