Departure Time

I can't stop
Looking over
The time sheets
Are they late?
It's just a string
of numbers
and I can't hear
my thoughts in here.
The people step over
and around me
one woman looks down
annoyed
I get on a car
where strangers jostle me
I look forward
While my chest shudders
and a man yells
about how drunk he was.
The echoes
sound like people
but they talk
about nothing
and express nothing
but their addiction
to eachother.

Sullen Replicas

A four-faced wheel
Stripped of man's likeness
Turns at my feet,
The animal reflections
Have glass eyes
Another winged hope dies
The abortion fades
But the ocean opens
More welcoming
Than any infant-mirage
Offerings go
Into the surf
Foam churns
And honest evils form
It helps to stand
In the tides
And choose a wrong,
To eat without regard
But nothing nourishes
That empty knowing
I kill to affirm power,
The surge of the drug spins
Like fire in
A homeless hearth.
(I have a person while I kill)
Years take us in hours
The living surge fades
We depress and know
That nothing satisfies
That empty
But children

Paralysis
I'm losing me
Falling into
My body
As a tomb
Watchers crowd around
In a dim violet circle
Get away from my shadow
The sublevel gate
They are crowded around
Counting my breaths
Dragging cold hands
Across my body
That shadow
Is a sublevel gate.

What's Left
06:29
|

I'm seeing people
absent from the scenes
they compose
They travel on wind
they are gone
in a sudden gust
they sweep through
skyline halls and
alleys and
many places
they never noticed
The cities sleep
in constant dreams
and mirror pictures
where the absence
of yesterday
is rising smoke
from the carefree fires
that are the streetlights
In this placelessness
all of the bricks
are laid flat on the ground
in a massive sheet
The cities slip
into a deepness
and miss nothing left of
what they were
but become lifeless.
