Tide pool crest of ivory mist; Apex of sky—blinding back-light. And I, writhing under its eye Contain all but any innocence. I have cracked the gates, an Uncanny peace of clouds Glimmering like water, like wool Being spun by the hands of the light— The kiss of the light—my master Penetrating the mystery itself, A nauseating beauty, silently Howling: Death, Death… Death As the symmetry of the swirl Curls my heart into a fist Forcing, fitting myself into a box, I leave the excess for my corpse To find, swollen and bursting with gas.

While Driving I Witness An End
Tide pool crest of ivory mist; Apex of sky—blinding back-light. And I, writhing under its eye Contain all but any innocence. I have cracked the gates, an Uncanny peace of clouds Glimmering like water, like wool Being spun by the hands of the light— The kiss of the light—my master Penetrating the mystery itself, A nauseating beauty, silently Howling: Death, Death… Death As the symmetry of the swirl Curls my heart into a fist Forcing, fitting myself into a box, I leave the excess for my corpse To find, swollen and bursting with gas.
