a cage w/in a box

 


all fucked and all

forgotten and a storm moving

in, a theory, a handful of pills on

the rim of the bathroom sink

 

dead man alone on a

minor island

 

phone ringing

in a january room

 

ask yrself the obvious questions

while darkness approaches

and come up with only

the obvious answers

 

the roof will collapse,

the basement will flood, your

children will learn to hate you

 

happiness runs like a river of

blood through all of it

 

daylight amplifies

ordinary fears

 

open yr heart to all

possibilities, and then run
