Scars left on the temporal scape
from galaxies that flew away
and left their outlines bleeding
on an empty land.

Themes die in the air
at least the stripped things gleam
some ragged consolation
crawls out of the pit
with crooked teeth
but the weight
of so many collapsing stories
has built a skeleton
of glue and gold
that is drowning
my skin suit
in a plastic tomb.
