The sky drips on Lookout Mountain
and the snaking roads shine
while the holes in the rocks
gulp light from the lightning.

Screens dance in the reflectors
on the robot body
where the spirit is lost in wire
and vast doors close
on the skeleton's mind.

Drawers trapped
in a glaze of glue
flash jeweled handles
the fossil has a new name
in its glass cabinet
with the signature changed.
