The clouds are coming
The flies rush in
Water flows underground
The mannequin stands at the window
Unclothed
Watching time fall by
A finger writes
In dust on the car
Bulky as skeletons
Empty like bones
Blown away on the flap of legs
bzzbzz
In one window
Out the next
Leaving something
Of nothing behind
I fall to bed at five
Resigned
This chemistry is screwed
I think
One cup gasoline
One drum beat
The mist of time falling by
Pass it on to dolly and bear
They can drink it up for tea
Put tiny cups in tiny hands and stir the tiny spoon
Rub tiny gums
And smile
Don’t look in the mirror
It’s good
Until you see behind
It’s time to seek the lord I think
She laughs and dances all wings and feet
At the bottom of the sheets
Chocolate spread and watches
Fairy cakes and glass
I need to break the window
I think
But I cannot stop my heart.
