I cannot feel here at all No touch in this space No sight sound Or ability to taste remorse ... When the roaring stops Done God deafening And the sine qua non silence The after the moment Moment Of a crushing vacuum of pause Pre denouement The infinity felt in the silence There ... before fate arrives sure footed Black boot stomp And fortunes imprint ... So deep this track How many have laid it ... And here is mine It shows my drag and limp Curving artfully in the mud To be shown and traced by hands of the living curious being That would care to escape palmistry Cut out the hustler the convict the grifter ... As they stoop to find the lines and ways That history archβs and would bend their bright future ... It would be a tragedy They think Finger curled to unsmiling face To flatly increase a pensive face ... And so the hum and swoop Of approaching infamy This heady swirl And no sound to its definitely draining source And no horn to sound an end No violent or shocking alarm To herald what will happen And stick ... To yellowed pages filled with flowery stroke Script that burns my name into useful algorithm Or other words More apropos
