closer take this pulse from my arms
an enwinged thing
the observatory a giant plastic dome
closer please show these blisters
i jitter and shiver
veins under observation
closer, please! this burning pulse
for your intelligence
or for my intelligence
for your existence
or my existence
closer come the edges
of the embers falling
flipflopping backwards
metamorphosis of butterflies
on a spindle-wheel
charring embers of reminiscence
like a thief in the night
floating away in the dusty wind
the music is cacophonous
steal upon steal
choke black from my ears too dark
radio shivers livewire transmissions
ring out the audio voodoo
like a thick damp cloth
