the grey disguised as a blind old god
the rain taps on the earth a code for worms
where the godless man goes paradise follows
sneezing hard seeing stars all noon
mountains rise and fall murmuration at dusk
starlings flock north of the concrete
smoke plume rises from the deepest and darkest parts of the forest away from the eyes of gods
swatting at the housefly in orbit
beer for the moth never bargain with the void
