HERE AGAIN, AGAIN HERE

How many weekends now have i said,
"how many weekends now have i said,
'how many weekends now have
passed for me?'"
So many Saturdaysundays,
Saturdaysundays,
Saturdaysundays in succession,
quick succession,
in long succession,
one inexorable procession
in timeless regression back,
backandback,
way back in timeless time,
snaking back, timorously,
taking me back with it,
in estimation to a
temporal destination immemorial,
arboreal with the overripened
fruit of flashback,
backandback,
in timeless regression back,
one inexorable procession
in long succession,
quick succession,
Saturdaysundays in succession,
Saturdaysundays,
so many Saturdaysundays
past for me.
How many weekends now have?
How many weekends now? Have i said?
How many weekends now have i said?
