IMPOSSIBLE
by Nick Jaina
the roads are stuck
cuz the semi trucks
have turned over
chickens scattered
and windows shattered
all over
it’s impossible, possible
to get to the center of the earth
it’s impossible, possible
but who knows how much that shit
might be worth
the flights are grounded
on the news it sounded
so serious
now they need you
all the Wikipedia
are so serious
it’s impossible, possible
threading a needle with spider’s silk
it’s impossible, possible
baptizing with the mother’s milk
all line up for the big apology overture
you can come and sit next to me there’s an open chair
it’s impossible, possible
to sleep in the middle of the lion’s den
it’s impossible, possible
how come everybody’s trying it then?
it’s impossible
