trappings become just
what you always thought
you'll be what you are
and what not
...........................................................
spent fortunes
recanting your prayers
the paraphernalia
all smoke
...........................................................
lines of citizens
in lightning dramas
vocals hanging in the sky
like paper money
...........................................................
testaments blasting
through the hood
your carriage
straight up
...........................................................
unfathomable heart
breaking through
surfaces of ice
just in time
...........................................................
torrents of permanence
backing up
through the sewers
in color
...........................................................
these little doors
what is it
barely coming through
predatory and proud
...........................................................
stricken with yellow
green thought
outlined
in infinite indigo
...........................................................
reflecting on flashing
roofline rainfall
drops in drips
and tintinnabulates
...........................................................
with foresight
and circumspection
scribbled circles turning
away
...........................................................
banking on air
no flight plan
no accounting
for the ground
...........................................................
late night storm
her curfew zippers
undone
by circumstance
