(un)titled ode IX

they
call it
the
jesus nut

it
is
the one
retaining pin
that
holds the main rotor
to
the mast
of
a helicopter

it
is a source
of
possible
catastrophic failure

without it

everything goes down in a fiery wreck

you
don’t
know this
but
you
have been
that
to me

it’s funny
because
jesus nut
is
the last thing
you
consider yourself

life is funny like that
