yellow discus
break the sky
in porcelain wash
the
gleam union tethers
of cleft verandahs
pavement and weeds
in slow dawn
follow
into houses
into houses
sit
wait and ease
coffee mugs and soda stream
an old sofa tear
left in half rupture
the humbling comfort
of a freely shared meal
aside
make small talk with the locals
before the next
mortar shells
till
pack at first light
amiable waves
side-long goodbyes
get up
fall down
march on
listening in
the children songs
of cakewalk structures
fall down
live from a backpack
foam mattress and gas light
soft monoxide dreams
march on
don't get left behind
from standing too long
squinting in confusion
among
city streets
phantom bodies
lost in half rapture
get up
changeling soldier
of changing skies
march on
live in a backpack
canvas and tent pegs
the blanketing rain
is always a comfort
'cept when you're in it
