i. raw lips and cracked broken tongues,
eyes grayer than cement and
starlight filtering through verdant branches—
sneakers and bonfires permeate every
orifice of memory.

ii.   promises, ivory roses,
white lies hidden beneath
dull glass,
faded street signs
bearing warnings of no return,
gas stations with fauna
coating the walls.

iii.   a parade of sparkling horses
stampede through
smoky streets,
iron lamps giving birth to
nations in  their ecstatic
irony.

iv.    silent screams of
the worst epilogue:
icy schemes and
hide-and-seek panacea.
(indigo clouds are
the black sheep of the
galaxy's romantic orbit.)



{ dead angels ,
melancholic skeletons
where hope once resided —
she sucks the life out of you . }
