the shock of it my drink spills on your day
popped from a blister pack crows on the wind bluster they fade
then muffled bells and chatter at synapses and the cultures of evening
step into lanes stoop to forests pause from volition
blood on white bread darling it’s got to taste good
the engine I think the engine said
should
one tenth of a gigalitre
course through
your heart your heart cannot rust
why don’t you
trust me on this?
