not enough gravity
I’m falling off this rock
There’s not enough gravity left
I stood on the wrong side, too close to the edge
Now, I’m falling, fare me well
We didn’t pay all our bills to God
Not insured enough, walk and run and trip and fall
So, now. kaput!
Save this crazy lifetime in a warped bottle
Which soon will crack for all its solar scrutiny
Insulate the bold things you can never have on stained glass fuzzy print
A half eaten apple sitting on a dusty cloud still has that deified eye planted on it
Globes are lit in insolence on...

stale
biting cubicles whose walls are made of stale air
while saffron grows abundant just beyond the bend
the wheels can turn - and do they turn
with tightness I'm afraid I cannot escape
the languishing silence must go on languishing
seems
feeding greens from the lap of little innocence
right before the eyes of all
fingers disperse the water drops on semoules
and the walker takes a walk 'neath orchards green
far from the noise
far from the rallying
I'm tired
though...
