metal road and shining reflectors
go about stepping across the stageland
imagined green and mossy path
and beauties spread across a thought
white panes scratched and knuckles bled
the walls in ember, ashes fainted
stagnant censored, burning faces
crying in disorientation
fix the screw, left and space
creating strokes that are doomed to end
it's all on the side, all in the inside
and it's time to tempt the lawmaker
lawmaking in his content
in the pinnacle of happiness
waiting for the law to bend
where he will strike without notice
and in the spirit of routine,
for the sake of assurance
she will drink every bit of its words
and let it melt her to its common core
there, in white overlays
typing midsentence--- a lasting pride of
sweet undeciphered narration
where she can relax in herself.
