Dystopian Filter


   Nothing confused

apocalypse signals

become a new real

 

   aground in headline

behind paywall

accelerate limits

of free content

 

   exhale and transact

 

   Outside façade

nothing transparent

scope paranoia

vision untrusted

 

   methadone clinic

pastels blinding

condone and construct

 

   dystopian filter

 

   Short-dated stills

shortening lifespan

through the untended

charted reminders

 

   lengthening days

leave their regrets

replaying your debts

 

   unease of dreams

Livery


 

Suspension

tail wagging

skies gray sort of pink

winds are etching

sun’s incision

days had passed

wrung elements

wrought surface

line defied

 

Retention

welted wrist

whipped into being

bled into spring

flowed internal

damnation speak

lifted confusion

lowered in burial

uncovered and damp

 

Recovery

eyes entwined

sightline delimited

vision is slighting

singling downward

shrouded in panel

indifferent reflex

motion borne

inanimate state

 

Decaying

expense defrayed

candy-coated closure

cold bottom feeding

muddy fangs

filth in numbers

etched into record

stench in the water

in circulation
