fissures in the vinyl .. .

..

I wake and rise
    anxiety
fawning skies
    venomous      wan
describe catatonic frenzy
    in two divided worlds
barbaric memes surrender
    quantified of intellect
    and memory

sky skaters
       on the edge
    there is no returning
       the golden bridge
       burning
   down and down below
       a tectonic gorge
       a canoe of words
   thrashing through high water

people were here
     before we came
     were they kindly
     we should have known
        vertigo now calls me
  circle turning
        black vinyl

     question all absurdity
your hollowed face
    anxiety
    spontaneity
    inspired artistry
        the fall of life
chance and change
    travels through a train window
        gaining
        always chasing
    shapeshifters appear
        changing faces
        fear
   nights of insecticidal dreaming
