Excuse me,
Could you just
Hold this.
I’ll be back
In a second.
So many years.
Often,
I think I hear
Laughter.
Excuse me,
Could you just
Hold this.
I’ll be back
In a second.
So many years.
Often,
I think I hear
Laughter.
Skin to key.
Slowly.
Screen and
Blood, shoot
Through wire.
Begin to reveal
Just what
Is
Inside of me.
Don’t look up
From the page,
My friend.
The world will
Never
Thank you.
And it’s safer
Where you are.
