I remember dropping my briefcase…

Inhaling the contents of a cigarette
through a specifically programmed filter,
sending civilized clouds of smoke into the air.

It must have been the iron in my blood.

The swarm waits amongst the crowd
to dissect with their mouths of lenses and feed the eagerly waiting larvae.

All lights went out but one, it burned, it hated.

She has been so scornful since the incident,
her heart collapsed shortly after she awoke Tuesday morning.

Panic at the vibration of windowpanes.

"We hold these truths to be self evident"
(rise up and kill the president.)

Oh, the danger of these words,
My pen collides with double pages.
One and then the other.

Watch your tongue…

…As it grazes the nerves of the fetishist
observing through the eyes of insects.

Just say the word, let it innocently spill from your civilian mouth.

The hottest, explosive gossip,
The mouth opens as does just inches below.

Satellites cast a red aura upon the desert, beware of the storm.
Better dead than any other name.

Sodium amytal discharged from the anti-climax of foreign affairs.

Extracting thoughts with black (and blue) magic.

Crawling in through a hole in a box, spinning webs to catch the words.
Distorting secrets surrounding the bay of the living dead.

Now…closer than ever before to the sun.

I hold this truth, I am self evident.

I remember dropping my briefcase…
Spilling forth from the firey womb, covered in the afterbirth of distortion and conspiracy, xenophobia reborn.

A moment of silence (and static)

How they all stood erect at the face of tragedy.
