Death Screens


Death screens laid out in visions
of moments alive from not-so-recent past
posted in emotive pensive recollections
tied together interpretations
terse or expansive but bounded
in a living breathing document

Fleeting as a moment’s breath
drawn in a chilling autumn morning
drawn closer immediacy beckoning
comments and concepts drawn
into the tapestry of a series of events
your eyes just can’t turn away from

Just leave this eulogy here
in a public record no one sees after
today without reminders
of the specks of lucent moisture
littered across the web in static
beacons giving rise to conscious states
