                               P o V

 
 
 
I sit in-(this room)  
 
not  
 
feeling (a thing)in the-multitude-of-  
feelings  
 
the walls  
[close in]  
 
like a youth-centric  
reality show on the  
primetime telly
 
 
 
  the lizard s---t----o--p-s  
 
    -midway-  
 
B l i n k  
 
The smell of  
    DEATH  
 
saturates  
 
the air-deaf  
 
in the utter silence  
 
of the voices  
   the noises  
 
Death of  
 
a dream  
a whim  
a want  
a wish  
a poem  
a poet  
a story  
a life  
a star  
a starstruck  
a moonstruck  
a child  
a moment  
 
 
          The stars  
--------r>u>s>h t>h>r>u-----  
        as the canopy  
       turns a new hue  
 
      in timelapse  
 
   Sigur Ros in the  
        (background)  
         permeates  
      (Alafoss it reads)  
 
         A tiny voice asks  
         'to take the cue'  
 
 
       up  and see----------->(the dehumidifier)  
 
I look  
 
 
I stare   [o u t s i d e]-     (the demystifier)  
 
B l i n k  
 
The lizard stays put in the  
    lizard point  
 
from somewhere  
a stone revolves  
(000000000000000)  
 
a few degrees  
(ooooooooooooo)  
 
in a relatively  
less cold place  
 
B l i n k.
