I guaran-damn-tee it isn't.

they look at you like you should be done 
making mistakes by now, 
like thirty years is enough time 
for everything to settle in —

that a life must at some point 
become concrete…
but look close and see the cracks 
and spaces, feel the openings 
and know that I am incomplete 
I …
life concrete
