eclipse

the world fades
as the moon slowly passes
over your soft lips

i choke
on my perfect day

the jewel

in the silent vapor of my breath
gossamer snow fell between the pines

A strange rubber ball appeared out of the nothingness.
"Put yourself in the ball," a voice said.
I did as it asked, "Allright?"
"Now, throw it!" the voice replied.

tool becomes enemy
clay soldiers march

leaflets of propaganda

drape the dead city

the chemotherapy that kills cities is itself a cancer

momentary embalming

the time between shots
is full of tremors
