pretty much a brain in a jar until the autumn sky calms
destruction is abstract until you focus on the blood and screams
i’ve settled for these innocent eyes and perfectly placed lips
the thunder out of nowhere derails the thought train
coffee at noon and the art of not dying
the dark moves on but the stragglers linger in limbo
now if we all put our heads together we might actually solve the greatest crime of all: existence
there is no front back or side door until you give meaning to this madness
floating as a phantom pariah amongst cosmic gas clouds
