taste bitterness
falling and rising
a broken current
of bile
swilling the palette
spirit recoding
in shallows
light receding unequivocally
no cover
like words can mean
as politicians fabricate
as air poses
surface tension
to apply
where we float
in a line
between principles
and ignorance
between social rhetoric
and pleasurable banter
between neat formalities
and fucking bureaucratic
recidivist calamities
the cathartic meridian
between self
and social infrastructures
the sun goes
the sky is empty
the murmuring of lives
in ensuing silence
down
how each takes
from the other
delivers back
a simplified version
cold dark insect purring night
the remote clicking
of precious chips
that scream our names
dreams of random process
that mumble derisively
cold night
cleansed in salt
we are numbers, ciphers
we live in the guest rooms
of technology
incarcerated behind
gleaming facades
we are dying
in a humming stillness
cold dark night
of brilliant numbers
star clusters
bleak holes in the imaginations
of our saviors
souls who
broadcast endless wishes
last moments
final cease
last moments hint
of immortality
last fragments
of sound
a breath expressing
what the ear fails to identify
a fragment
of exquisite song
a morsel of hope
of endless thought
of endless hope
of endless
endless
endless
