just one of many shadows waiting for the end times
quiet concrete corner saplings raise their heads
summer fly crawls across curtain fire
live long enough and you’ll defy the gods
to let go is to let the void in
the broken city cradled in the sun’s furnace
space whales guided by the subtle starsong
deep space the soul where it belongs
death rides the night tides
