open
gleefully morose and one-eighty over, maneuvering the scene inverse,
***** in the karma burn, chemically resplendent, caught in glimpses
half-blind through demagoggles
toes peeled back and cloven on approach,
confiding softly: "they burn strangers here,"
as if we couldn't read the signs
voices like glass on glass in broadcast intercede
stretched through and wide, seething, spread,
we watch ink drown static
sipping fumes
****** rises, knuckles white over knuckles blue
over glass and steam
confiding chemically, inverse
as if we couldn't read the signs
Love,
the dead minotaur
