half-lit, becoming
what ever it is, it's coming
here, no where to run
Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.

Due to budget cuts, the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off. Sorry for the inconvenience.


WAIT.

here, no where to run
in the tree hollow -- light shivers
in the crow's round eyes.

sweet, refreshing change.
the ice shifts in our glasses;
tired conversation.
In a shadow there is the blessing of a shadow.

sleepless dreams call me
but i do not respond to
the beckoning voice.
it is always another hand that guides me.

The sun shakes his head
undulating inferno
scorching and seething

scorching and seething,
undulating and breathing,
rioting sparsely.

rioting sparsely,
the horses do not want hay,
they want human flesh
There is always something left to love.

deep fried tomorrow,
each word feels like chicken wings
so dry that it hurts.

No worries avi, we push this train track by track

So dry that it hurts—
the desert Sun beats us down;
night convalesces.
