Steeples + Smokestacks    (**Semi-Filler**)

we watched used films + rolled strange cigarettes
practised mind-tricks in ashtrayed livingrooms
played kiss-games at picnics + movie theatres

we had trouble communicating
at house parties + dead end fires
we learned levitation + natural dances
on the pathways to the mountains

it all came together on the stairs
connections when old friends appeared
some local event in the summer sunset
new myths were introduced + plans arranged

it's time to get out of town
the sun is actually rising
mistakes can be made
remember + return

share stories over drinks
then disappear
