So rubber minded,
so blaze brained,
my cough a hack of germs
and smoke and wet
with sweet vermouth
splashing off my gullet.
The week ahead is silly.
I can go to sleep.
Beautiful dying vines
dragging down the tree
anchored to Earth
Monsters in black-and-white,
near the limits of thought,
even in my dreams,
patrolmen watch.
