Inputs ingrained
in
shit-stained outlines
leaving
their marks
on the sidewalk
long
past the date
of our expiration
Magnetized parameter
pushed
toward center collapse
of reason when
given
space to
splay its wares
in pressing
display
grasped
through an orifice
fully
formed and grappled
In-traffic enlightenment
full-stop meditations
on high
arresting
volume
of violent
collision
with metal
on metal
intersected
or crashing against
an opaque
window
bruised and
brushed dust
stirred at
the edges
Vampire bats encircling
helicopters
and beams
of God’s
grace
on the sidewalk
spotlight down
unholy white
scalpel
its custom
handle
etched with
my initials
and date of
birth
