you approached
as i witnessed
lifelines
coming
from the
opposite
direct-
ions


evolving
and
decomposing


never intended envy
to level connections
stirring amber geodes
into quicksand
realms....


that....


excavate
jetstreams
using
pumus stones
striking it rich
catching
wind with whispers


holstering
words wide awake
protecting us unknowingly
stored beneath
are choices
that were
made
then....


automatically refunded


as easily as a clock
buying time on layaway


as change is breaking down
walls constructed for this
generating power


just with energy of thoughts


felt a tingling contentness
wash then hush caution
blinking in the cold
angry stares


casting a mirage
over the westwind cliff
fracturing in splintered hazel
faceted stanzas


informing myself
while memory is still
making quick progress


seeing a way out of the maze
within the angled 3 walled world
constructed in futures frosted file-cabinet


marked as a mindbomb
