(of actually completing this, I humbly open this space for the occasional bedraggled poem to crawl into and die a lonely death. please observe with restraint and a proper air of mourning - none of that 'celebrate-the-life' hippie nonsense, ya hear? also, no pets allowed.)

Stories have to begin somewhere.
There are so many now, everywhere –
So similar, so different, walking and driving and swimming and flying;
Surrounding us, formless, liquid dreams. Where did they come from? We are
each trapped within our own, locked, criss-crossing through a multitude of others,
some known, some not; rippling in countless concentric cascades [imagined].
Follow the threads, follow them back.

And this, the first customer to enter this whorehouse
climbs gently into the fresh dug grave. Take note
for though he leads a party of one, the trail is blazed
and others will follow its light
no matter the darkness that waits.
