***a napalm brain bath***
if that doesn’t work
there’s always power electronics

I can’t help but think it’s getting late
that something here is ending
with nothing waiting in the wings

Diet 'Zona Honey Ginseng1
too big for cup holder
lights go on in parking lot
wandering metal, reluctantly gathered
a void calls out from beyond my mental outskirts

You're not the man you thought you were
you're something less defined
no match for the long haul

If I only had a dollar for every
Pepto-colored takeback

Every day my computer screen appears a bit further away

White prickly waves upon waves
a heat somehow without warming

Over time childhood snowdays are amalgamated

The parking lot fence is just high enough to stop
throbbing deer memories from bounding over

I'm near a scrapyard where gizmos are eating metal

Up above the sun churns countless chemicals2
its lion mane tendrils feel good on my skin

A sudden-onset palsy triggered by hippocampus parallax

Miami manifest as perpetual
carnal twilight:

"Was I ever even there? Did it
