Aunt Winnie fingers the thunder to learn

Aunt Winnie fingers the thunder to learn,
so that we have left everything aside
but not as a cloud mind steps beside
the slow reservoir
now it is all of this, the pink bulbs included,
which means we have “protected ourselves”
by forgetting all we were dealt
