mechanical hum
pen violates
blank slate
mechanical hum
pen violates
blank slate
sound of water a leap into nothingness
running
from the cockroach
winter human
fairy lights the red in our veins deepen
finite light the dimming notion of life
golden faces stoic in grim mental winds
after the rain mnemonic ritual of sex
noon rain
rough calloused hands
tend to leaves
and perhaps the gods are random anomalies
winter cruel in the spaces between
