look down


over a ravine
look down look down
look down rumble
fall
thru yr thoughts

look down look down
fall
look down look down
jump
thru a rush
of gusting wind
over a ravine
a bridge
over a ravine

look down look down
cry
look down look down
fly

up & up & up & up
from the depths
of reflective instances
of mesmerism
in a reflection
in a pool

i drown'd
inna looking glass
drown'd in my self

look down look down
fall
look down look down
claw
the air

wanto get home


up & over
in what's
afternoon's glare
& love
the best.

sun set over there

i'm in a train
on a bridge
over a river
nexto the window

this snake-machine
is packed with people

i've unintentionally
collided with many people
& i'm not even moving.

i even accidentally
marked on a gentleman's
arm with my pen.

the sun cuts
through i-beams
to the back
of my neck,
side of my face,
my hat.

the pure glare
off the river,
the sun's cut toward night,
heats the sunset bricks
& george washington's statue
& all the people
who just wanto get home.

the one with a hat
& precise hand
looking to nobody
the one with the eyes closed
& the open mouth
the one with a concentration rictus
divided between a book
& a dead arm
