Golf

The problem being one
of offsetting 
sawdust and strings and puppets
putting along strange and wonderful
unknown contours of
space/time
neck joints and dowels
sliding along varnish to 
follow the path of a dimpled
white Titleist as it rolls
along the camber of space
scudding over/through/before/after
a star's 3.8 billion mile and
2 million year life
over the grain of a galaxy
wooden hips twisting to
attempt to adjust the rolling
ball 
as it skirts disaster
and curves into
the
hole.
