oversight
maybe there’ll never again be
another perfect sunrise gazed upon by tired eyes
maybe these thoughts should see
a notion that these entities might not quite be real
but the product of a percussively detailed dream
a squashed mesh in which this city lies, entangled
enraptured
caught in real seconds
and those touched by shuddering disbelief.
trapped on a shifting sand between two lands
unsure of why or where or how to belong
as voices force future forgetfulness
have you known the answer all along?
take my hand; we can pass through this mirror
a journey to an impossible destination
when plate glass succumbs to versatile volatility
it is polite only to oblige, and fall in languid sublimation.
