In Between 5 And 14

time passed
is time contempt and sore
time sat still
while remains reset the months
wrested in angles
clear back to atlantis
sorries to believers,
tried to let it happen
a never-ending blackout
catscan sees nothing.
we lived in between
5 and 14
under napalm and propane
statements with no centainty.
gestures lumbered and graceless
and in between
5 and 14
engine and knock,
still they work to fix it.
here comes the locust
sweating last night’s gin
here comes eris
riding
side-hack;
plasma drips poolside
from the roach motel
spores multiplying
in and above the fountain
hang from anger: transferred
snuck in through the window.
we lived in between
5 and 14
under napalm and propane
statements with no centainty.
gestures lumbered and graceless
and in between
5 and 14
engine and knock,
still they work to fix it.
