Afterwards you came to me

and asked

'Why did you slow down

before the end?'

I had not realised

I had

The blue glass sky

bled us sweat-dry

and lurking

in the corner

always the eyes

Inside all was madness

and crushed teal ice

I could not shed

the cloak of air

Hate is for the jilted,

no-go refunds

and markets saturated with remembrance.

I'd like to pick tulips

and I'll open the le...

of a well

everything looks so small from down here.

as a close acquaintance to nothing

Glad to hear your voice 
Happy to be with you 
Always, you're very nice 
Whatever you say or do 

Lucky, to be your friend

Forever together no end 
Shining heart as the sun 

Among thousand fans 
We're the mates in reality 
Sharing act and talks
Hearts believe in Honesty

and causal wear,

your ghost in my machine.

A bawling, squall, curtains

of hail and rain hang outside,

ladder, paint, spots and tans

and frayed carpet,

the dark, shaggy corner swamp,

where I found you, sideways-stacked,

cracked...
