Commando in Syntax



The sound of passing cars is a song named Doppler.

I imagine it in an earthquake

and/or other dire straits.



(So strange being this near road


so quiet when not loud,


a stillness built for quickness.)




I slip into the wet math of my mind.

It is populated by spherical inklings


that glisten as if with petrol


(and face forward from any side).




I think of something soft and try

somehow

to make it softer,


swallow my own breath,


Imagine1…my ramparts receding.



-AND COLONEL JOHN MATRIX SAID UNTO ARIUS THE BANDIT COLDLY, "FUCK 'EM"-




(my serenity is a gun.)
