come dawn the body accepts and the mind forgets

each night the flesh and mind evolves

flesh upon flesh conjuring formlessness

curtain call the grey cascades upon us

the rain reclaims its birthright: a landscape lost

paper plane launched into the summer grey

the concrete mist brings a message of maya

the caged bird’s disgust at paradise

illusion of ash clouds the disturbed mind

nowhere to go the pyre smoke snakes and plays
