06.01.06 (an empty apartment and a wine bottle)

you had to waltz by in that yellow dress
all we could do was watch
like the guilty you robbed us of our attention
such an easy step you did that day
closer when we inhaled
and a pull-away at the exhale
seemingly floating we just admired from the ground
there are no drains
there are no drains
right then that delicate yellow dress disintegrated
to reveal pure beauty and final liberation

we all clapped
and stumbled
and choked
and gave thanks

06.01.05 (steps of a Cuernavaca grocery store)

not an insignificant happening
sat on the stairs watching power lines
which brought your images of those and mesh screens to mind

well...
i wish you stay full of murderous energy
brutal indifference
anger-inspired laughs
extremities in general

if you'd like we could peel the insulation
climb in electric-like
run through time

just don't leave me alone
