LISTS

 

people come

people go

lists remain

our blind farrago

 

algorithms

inner cracking sound system

bleed me

bleed my

love or defeat me

I have met that person

I don’t do autographs

but I am up for the duration

 

people come

people go

lists remain

our blind farrago

 

patriotism

secret weapon stashed within

free me

free the

horse underneath me

riding wild to reason

to a place unaware

of the knee-buckling seasons we share

 

people come

people go

lists remain

our blind farrago

 

somnambulism

eyelids lowered to the scrim

teach me

teach the

heart that belies a

beating past of war cries

in the thin underneath

of the root killing history we know

 

people come

people go

lists remain

our blind farrago
