An Hour Ago

Sought answers in

Bubbling tides, closed eyes quake

Baked in eighty-one degree frost

Winter never fazed. stalk greats on grapevines

Friends I’ve lost like sand and coarse grains, let them float- green

Acid holds passive fist, mass hatred hit

Critical: await my weakness!

Clip seconds, homework seeks

Calm keys clacking.

South Korean

Spring fluttered, fractured twigs,

Cherry blossoms burden driveways

Stars pave gas clotted skies, arteries forge

Steel beam fuel, magma cool and obsidian set

Concrete reads: 잃어버린 사랑

And so on… rain called: I answered.

Strange fade takes hazel eyesight

Mind bends daily.

Call mother when

homesickness ticks, slow streams

save in Lucifer’s lapsing temp-

O- days glow silver electric fences

Ten foot wall holds tenses, stress veils past purpose, goals

Mountains I can’t fall from, baseless geo-

Metrics, last wish young one birthdays

Compensated, gifts gone,

Grow up! Grow Up!
