darkless
through the bright haze
of progress—
inscrutable stars
play hide & seek
in the grey-lit city night.

prison break
I sit and think—
—half-feverishly—
of a phrase in the shape
of a jail-door's key.

infrastructure
tendons, joints creak;
hands reach, interlace—
form a sanguine bridge,
over a heartless place.

ear-worms
discordant motifs jostle
—subterranean—
through tunnels to the tram:
launch into a waiting train,
and mingle silently.

impressionable
my mind:
the kind of putty
that stretches
until it gets too cold
and snaps.
